An encrypted tunnel is created between your machine and CrossBrowserTesting.com. Our remote browsers are directed to send their traffic to your local proxy. All URLs are resolved locally via your proxy, so URLs with your internal DNS names will work just fine. The proxy will receive ALL traffic, such that if you test http://google.com, even this request will route through your tunnel and will be handled via your proxy server.

Requirements / limitations:

• Outbound ssh requests to port 443, SSL on CrossBrowserTesting.com must be allowed via your firewall.

Note: Try to use your full IP address.
Use: http://yourinternalhostname.yourinternaldomain.com:80

For localhost or 127.0.0.1 connection use the word local instead like this
http://local:80

To test a web server inside your firewall, simply enter the same URL you would use from your local browser.

• NOTE: The Java tunnel options are deprecated and will not be supported in the near future.
