The Firebox X Edge uses port 1080 to speak to computers with
software using SOCKS. Make sure that port 1080 is open and not
used by other software on the computer.
1 If you can identify a version, select SOCKS version 5.
2 Select port 1080.
3 Set the SOCKS proxy to the URL (uniform resource locator) or IP
address of the Firebox X Edge. The default IP address is:
192.168.111.1.
Disabling SOCKS on the Edge
When the software using SOCKS stops, port 1080 stays open. To
stop this security risk, close the port.
1 On the Firewall Options page, select the Disable SOCKS proxy
check box.
The SOCKS Proxy is disabled.
2 Click Submit.
To use the SOCKS-compatible application:
1 Clear the Disable SOCKS proxy check box.
The SOCKS proxy is enabled.
2 Click Submit.
