The protocol used by a proxy-based firewall.
Possible Values
NONE, TUNNEL, SOCKS4, SOCKS5
Data Type
string
Default Value
"NONE"
Remarks
This property specifies the protocol that the adapter will use to tunnel traffic through the FirewallServer proxy. Note that by default, the adapter
connects to the system proxy; to disable this behavior and connect to one of the following proxy
types, set ProxyAutoDetect to false.
| Type | Default Port | Description |
| TUNNEL
| 80
| When this is set, the adapter opens a connection to SharePoint and traffic flows back and
forth through the proxy.
|
| SOCKS4
| 1080
| When this is set, the adapter sends data through the SOCKS 4 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort and passes the FirewallUser value to the proxy, which determines
if the connection request should be granted.
|
| SOCKS5
| 1080
| When this is set, the adapter sends data through the SOCKS 5 proxy specified by FirewallServer and FirewallPort. If your proxy requires
authentication, set FirewallUser and FirewallPassword to credentials the proxy
recognizes.

To connect to HTTP proxies, use ProxyServer and ProxyPort. To authenticate to HTTP proxies, use ProxyAuthScheme, ProxyUser, and ProxyPassword.
