If your environment requires Telligent Evolution to use a proxy server to access the Internet, you need to tell Telligent Evolution about your proxy server. To do this, you need to modify the Web.config file.
If using Telligent Evolution 5.6 or above, you must also make this change to the Telligent.JobScheduler.Service.exe.config file in the Job Scheduler directory.
You also need to add the following to your web.config file. You can do this just before the closing </configuration> at the end of the file:
<system.net>
<defaultProxy>
<proxy proxyaddress="http://localhost:8888/" />
</defaultProxy>
</system.net>
For further details on configuring a proxy through the web.config file, refer to the Microsoft documentation.
