Environment

NetIQ Identity Manager Driver - Office 365

Situation

Many sites connect to the Internet via a proxy.  How can the office 365 driver connect via a proxy.

Resolution

1. Make sure that the proxy allows access to the following domains:
*.microsoftonline.com
*.secure.aadcdn.microsoftonline-p.com
*-outlook.ocm
*-outlook.office365.com
*.prod.msocdn.com

2. Configure the .Net Remote Loader Service to use an LogOn User (and not the default local system account).

3. Logon with that user on the Remote Loader system and configure the proxy in the Internet options of IE.

4. In a PowerShell console: netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie

5. The driver now uses that proxy configuration.
