What is a proxy server and when would I want to enter the information in the advanced tab of the Desktop Assistant?
A proxy server is a server that acts as an intermediary between a user and the Internet so that the corporate enterprise can ensure security. If you use a proxy server to access your corporate network, during the Desktop Assistant download process you will be prompted to enter your network proxy server UserID and Password. These are the credentials that you typically have to enter to log onto the Internet when using a proxy server.
