# HTTP(S) Proxy agent settings

This dialog box enables you to configure the Service Virtualization HTTP(S) Proxy agent. The agent handles communication between a client and a real or virtual service.

To access | From the main menu, select Tools > Options. Click Agents. Under HTTP(S) Proxy, select a configuration.
Important information | For additional important configuration information, see the task Configure the HTTP(S) Proxy agent. For Java-based clients running on OpenJDK or JDK 6 (or later) with self-signed certificates, you may need to add the `“-Dsun.security.ssl.allowUnsafeRenegotiation=true”` startup parameter, or the client may reject communication with the HTTPS Agent. For more details, see your Java documentation. You can define multiple configurations for each agent.
