Browser proxy configuration for Chrome/Safari on OS X

Note

Keep in mind that using the proxy will only work while you have access to the workernode for which the SSH tunnel was set up, i.e. while the HOD cluster is running, and while you are able to connect to the HPC infrastructure.

To reset your browser configuration back to normal, simply disable the proxy in your browser configuration.

1. Navigate to the Proxies tab in the Advanded part of the Network section in System Preferences

• directly, via System Preferences, Network, Advanced, Proxies tab
• via Safari: Preferences, Advanced, Proxies: Change settings...
• via Chrome: Settings (or Preferences...), Change proxy settings (enter proxy in Search settings)

2. Select SOCKS proxy, enter localhost and port number that was used to set up the SSH tunnel (e.g., 10000)

   Clear the Bypass proxy settings for these Hosts & Domains box.

   Click OK to save the configuration.
