The Windows installer allows you to enter a proxy address during installation, so in the majority of cases you don't need to worry about adding extra command line parameters. Command line parameters are particularly useful when you're deploying a Group Policy installation or other automated task.
The OneAgent installer recognizes the --set-proxy
parameter. The value of the parameter is the proxy server address. Add the port number following a colon (for example, 172.1.1.128:8080
). For an authenticating proxy, you can specify the username and password like this username:password@172.1.1.128:8080
, where both username and password need to be URL encoded. Dynatrace also supports IPv6 addresses.
Parameter names are case-sensitive, so use ALL CAPS
for parameter names.
Let's say you've downloaded your OneAgent installer to the C:\Users\Admin\Downloads
folder and your proxy IP address is 10.1.1.5
. In such a scenario you would begin the installation like this:
C:\Users\Admin\Downloads>Dynatrace-OneAgent-Windows-1.171.0.exe --set-proxy=10.1.1.5
If you need to change the proxy address after installation, use --set-proxy
in the OneAgent command-line interface.
