You can configure an outbound HTTP proxy for Ivanti EPMM. This proxy is intended primarily for organizations that require an HTTP proxy for communications with the Ivanti EPMM Gateway.

**Procedure**

1. In Admin Portal, select <font color="#323232">Settings &gt;System Settings &gt; Security &gt; Outbound HTTP</font>.
2. Use the following guidelines to complete the fields in this section:

| **Field**                   | **Description**                                                          |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| HTTP Client Connect Timeout | Specify the amount of time to wait for the connection setup to complete. |
| HTTP Client Socket Timeout  | Specify the amount of time to wait for a response from the proxy server. |
| HTTP Proxy URL              | Enter the URL for the outbound HTTP proxy.                               |
| HTTP Proxy Auth Name        | Enter the authentication name for the HTTP proxy.                        |

3. Click <font color="#323232">Save</font>.
