Description
Define the parameters required to configure HTTP-based communication for a proxy profile. This configuration is essential for enabling the proxy service to authenticate and connect to the specified remote host. It supports authentication mechanisms used by multiple services—including SecIntel (for threat feed handling), AppID (for application traffic identification), Content security (for antivirus and web filtering), and PKID (for certificate enrollment). By enabling authenticated HTTPS communication through a proxy, this setup ensures that only verified data sources can interact with protected network environments, thereby enhancing security and compliance.
