⁠B.6.2. SPICE Proxy Machine Setup

Summary
This procedure explains how to set up a machine as a SPICE Proxy. A SPICE Proxy makes it possible to connect to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization network from outside the network. We use Squid in this procedure to provide proxy services.
⁠

Procedure B.2. Installing Squid on a RHEL Machine

  1. Install Squid on the Proxy machine: 
    # yum install squid
  2. Open /etc/squid/squid.conf. Change 
    http_access deny CONNECT !SSL_ports
    To 
    http_access deny CONNECT !Safe_ports
  3. Restart the proxy: 
    # service squid restart
  4. Open the default squid port: 
    # iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3128 -j ACCEPT
  5. Make this iptables rule persistent: 
    # iptables-save
Result
You have now set up a machine as a SPICE proxy. Before connecting to the Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization network from outside the network, activate the SPICE proxy.
