A proxy server is a computer that processes data traffic between the local network and the Internet. If your computer connects to the Internet via a proxy, you should configure the program to ensure it can access the Internet via the proxy in order to be updated.
If you connect to the Internet via a proxy server, you will need to indicate the IP address of that server, and the port that it uses.
Also, if the proxy server requires authentication (if it asks you for a user name and password), you must also indicate these details.
