Usage Note 35824: Proxy setup for SAS® Web Analytics environments
The SAS® Web Analytics page-overlay feature connects to web sites and downloads pages much like an Internet browser does. Therefore, it needs network-level access to web site domains (for example, www.sas.com). The connections are made from a SAS middle-tier server. This server must have access to the Internet as if an HTML browser were running there.
In some Enterprise environments, direct connections to some or all domains are prohibited. Access is managed by using a proxy server, which serves as a gateway to the Internet. The
SAS Web Analytics page-overlay feature can be made to work in this environment. It requires configuration of the proxy server parameters within the startup parameters of the web application server.
