– HTTP over Proxy Settings: The settings required to communicate over a proxy 
network using HTTP. These settings apply when Automatic or HTTP over Proxy 
connection methods are selected.
Hostname: The name of the proxy host.
TCP Port: The network port number for the TCP network service on the proxy 
host. 
Username:
Password: The username and password for logging on to the proxy host.
Enable persistent proxy connections: Specifies whether the Digi device should 
attempt to use HTTP persistent connections. Not all HTTP proxies correctly handle 
HTTP persistent connections. The use of persistent connections can improve 
performance of the exchange of messages between the device server and remote 
management server, when that connection is HTTP/proxy. The reason for this is that 
the same HTTP connection can be reused for multiple consecutive HTTP requests 
and replies, eliminating the overhead of establishing a new TCP connection for each 
individual HTTP request/reply, then closing that connection when the request is 
complete.
