Proxy for ispmanager repositories in CentOS 7

Proxy for ispmanager repositories in CentOS 7

Why?

The use of a proxy server is an effective solution for cases where a CentOS 7 server lacks access to ispmanager repositories.

Instructions

In order for the server to work with repositories through a proxy server, the following directives must be added to the repository files:

  • proxy <proxy-server-address>;
  • proxy_username <login> (optional);
  • proxy_password <password> (optional).

Typically, modifications should be made to the repository files located in /etc/yum.repos.d:

  • ispsystem.repo;
  • ispsystem-base.repo;
  • exosoft.repo;
  • epel.repo.

As repository files can contain multiple sections, denoted by the name in square brackets (e.g. [epel]), it is important that directives should be added to those sections where the following directives are present:

  • mirrorlist with a value that looks like "https://download.ispmanager.com/...";
  • enable with a value set to "1".
