The Teradata Access Module for GCS supports using an HTTPS proxy that does not require authentication. The access module can receive the proxy specification in two ways:
- Through the HTTPS_PROXY environment variable, using the shell syntax:
export HTTPS_PROXY=http://w.x.y.z:m
where w.x.y.z is the IP address (or domain name) of the proxy server and m is the port number of the proxy service.
- Through the module parameters, using the syntax:
HttpsProxy=http://w.x.y.z:m
where w.x.y.z and m have the same meaning.
In the case of the module parameter, the HttpsProxy specification can be abbreviated:
HttpsProxy=w.x.y.z:m
If both specifications are provided, the module parameter takes precedence over the environment variable.
