This article explains how to configure an HTTP proxy for Windows-based Veeam components when the server must reach the internet through a proxy. It applies to Veeam products installed on Windows, including Veeam Backup & Replication, Veeam Cloud Connect, Veeam ONE, Veeam Service Provider Console, and Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows. Note: This article covers Windows-based components only. For Linux-based components (the Veeam Software Appliance and JeOS-deployed appliances), see KB4807.
Summary Configuring an HTTP proxy for Veeam components on Windows requires setting the proxy in up to three different places: WinHTTP is used by various Veeam components and is configured with netsh. WinINET (Internet Options) is used by components that rely on Windows Internet and is configured per user account. System-wide environment variables (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and NO_PROXY) are new in Veeam Backup & Replication 13. In Veeam Backup & Replication 13, many components were moved to modern .NET Core, and as such, they read their proxy configuration from environment variables first, falling back to WinINET (Internet Options) only when no environment variables are set. These components will not read the WinHTTP (netsh) configuration at all.
