Configure the Proxy on TEF Laptop (Windows)

This guide describes how to configure the proxy settings in Windows.

Note that due to this documentation being available to the public the TEF-proxy is not shown in plaintext, but shown as <TEF-proxy>. To ask for the actual value, please request here.

Windows Environment Variables

Set the proxy
Open cmd from the start menu and check if the proxy variables are set:

set | findstr proxy

If the variables are already set something like the following should be shown:

HTTPS_PROXY=<TEF-proxy>:8080
HTTP_PROXY=<TEF-proxy>:8080

If nothing is returned, the proxy is missing and can be set via the following commands from the cmd:

setx HTTPS_PROXY <TEF-proxy>:8080
setx HTTP_PROXY <TEF-proxy>:8080

The changes will not be visible inside the currently open cmd, so open a new instance of the cmd and check again if the settings are now available via:

set | findstr proxy
