5.4.2 Proxy Servers
It is recommended to use a direct Internet connection whenever possible. If your environment
does not have this capability you may need to use your sites proxy server. You will need to obtain
the proxy server DNS name and TCP port that it operates on. This information will be needed by
GE or the installer depending on the installation requested.
Many sites that utilize proxy servers for Internet access also require the use of a login or other
information to gain access to the Internet. For the WattStation unit to work properly there may
be a requirement for your IT team to exclude the GEWattStation.com Internet domain from
requiring authentication.
