Proxy and Customer ID
You need your customer-specific proxy name when you configure a Client Proxy policy, web browser, or operating system to direct web traffic to Skyhigh Web Security Gateway Service for filtering.
The customer-specific proxy is the domain name of your WGCS instance and formatted as c<customer_id>.wgcs.skyhigh.cloud
, where:
c
— precedes the customer ID<customer_id>
— consists of 10 digitswgcs.skyhigh.cloud
— is the name of the WGCS proxy service.
To configure WGCS as the proxy server, specify the customer-specific proxy name and port number 80
or 8080.
Example: c1234567890.wgcs.skyhigh.cloud:8080
Customer ID
Your customer ID:
- Uniquely identifies you in the system.
- Allows Client Proxy, WGCS, and other web protection components to connect, synchronize, and communicate securely.
