Installation and Activation

63

JeppView has the ability to work with standard proxy server configurations including
HTTP, HTTP Tunneling, SOCKS V4, and SOCKS V5. A proxy setup might be required
depending on your firewall to activate your program electronically and to
electronically download JeppView updates.

Contact your Systems Administrator if you are unsure of the configuration.

TIP

Check the Internet Explorer proxy settings to determine if your network
uses a proxy server. This can also often tell you the proxy address and

port of your proxy server.

If you have a firewall, make sure the IP addresses and ports are open on your
firewall. If they are blocked on your firewall, you still might not be able to connect
even after setting up the proxy server.

To set up proxy server support in JeppView, click the Proxy Configuration button
in the Activation Wizard or click Tools > Proxy Setup within JeppView. The proxy
configuration box appears. To set up proxy connections:

1. Click New.

2. Select a proxy type.

3. In the Proxy Host field, enter the address, given by your System

Administration, where your proxy is at on your network followed by a colon
and the port it resides on. This is where JeppView will send communication to
be "proxied" to the Internet. It should look something similar to
proxy.jeppesen.com:8080

where the proxy server is at proxy.jeppesen.com

and it is on port 8080.

4. In the Port(s) field, enter the ports you want the data sent to on the proxy

server. If this is an HTTP proxy, you can enter 80. All port 80 requests will
then be sent to the proxy server. If it is a SOCKS proxy and handles other
communication besides HTTP (or you are using SSL) you might need to enter
more than one proxy setup.
