# How to configure proxy settings in BugSplat

BugSplat can be configured to send crash reports through a proxy server using the following steps:

* Configure your proxy connection in Internet Explorer / Internet Options
* Select the Connections Tab
* Select the LAN settings button
* Enter the IP address and listening port of your proxy server
* The settings below are for a Squid proxy server, it listens to port 3128 by default. The correct values for your ip address and port are likely to be different.
* When this is setup correctly, Internet Explorer will be able to use the proxy server to show web pages

BugSplat will use these same settings to relay through the proxy server too.![ie proxy settings](https://976110677-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LBMgmIcgkIXSUfnXDSv%2Fsync%2Faab8f39aebdaa833a2c60d6f2b04e768158493a2.png?generation=1631220371078504\&alt=media)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.bugsplat.com/education/faq/how-to-configure-proxy-settings-in-bugsplat.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
