Proxy Bypass for Internal Host

Network
1

I have the web proxy configured in non-transparent mode on the Green network. I have one stubborn device on the Green network that dutifully adheres to the wpad.dat file served up via DHCP config, but it just doesn’t work with the proxy. This host is using a locked down OS so I cannot tell it to ignore the proxy configuration, and I can’t do any kind of diagnostics to figure out why it doesn’t like the proxy. How can I tell the web proxy to add a stanza to the wpad.dat file that explicitly instructs this host to use DIRECT? Something like:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)

{

  …

  if (myIpAddress() == "172.16.0.210") return "DIRECT";

}

Can this be done via the web UI? I’m running IPFire 2.29 (x86_64) - Core-Update 200.

Thanks! - Paul

Hello,

No.

The file you need to edit is in /srv/web/ipfire/html/
Look for proxy.pac

I am usually using these tutorials (and examples) for editing proxy.pac:
