Edgemicro uses http_proxy even for API calls

Hi ,

We have installed edgemicro version 2.4.6 . Since our servers are behind the firewall we are using a http_proxy in the environment settings to let edgemicro communicate with APIgee edge to download the profiles & products . This all works fine and our edgemicro starts up really well .

But when the API calls are made to edgemicro it continues to use the http_proxy towards the targets which is not the desired behaviour . The edgemicro is in the same network as the target and hence we dont intend to route it via the http_proxy .

I need some suggestion on how to limit the http_proxy only for profile downloading and not for the actual API calls to target ?

I went through the following section " Setting up Edge Microgateway behind a company firewall" in page edgemicro

But still it does not help .

Please suggest .

you should be able to use the NO_PROXY env var with a list of hostnames that don't have to go through the proxy.

Thanks Srinandans .I did that too but then the edgemicro does not start up .

But still I would prefer something which is a one time setup because excluding hosts using NO_PROXY needs a change for every new target getting added .
