PROXY_SUBNET

Subnet mask to identify local URIs

The PROXY_SUBNET environment variable specifies the subnet mask to use to identify local URIs within the Synergy HTTP document transport API.

Value

The local subnet mask used to identify whether a given URI is a local URI. The default is 255.255.0.0.

Discussion

This subnet mask is bitwise applied to the IP address of the host contained in the requested URI and compared to a known local IP address filtered by the same subnet mask to determine if the URI request is for a local server. Specify the subnet mask in dotted text form (for example, 255.255.255.0).

To help determine the correct value for PROXY_SUBNET, you can view your subnet mask by running ipconfig. The following is sample output:

Windows IP Configuration

     IP Address. . . . . . . . . : 10.1.3.76
     Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . : 255.255.0.0
