Operation via a Proxy Server

Proxy server is necessary if your machine has no direct connection to the Internet. High Speed Verifier works with DNS servers using the UDP protocol, but the list of DNS servers is downloaded from our site using the HTTP protocol.

When downloading the list of DNS servers, HSV is using Microsoft Internet Explorer settings. If you can view web pages with Microsoft Internet Explorer, HSV is unlikely to have any problems with downloading the server list from our site. There is only one instance when a problem is possible: if your proxy requires authorization (username and password should be provided). Then, request from your system administrator to alter the authorization procedure so that you don't have to enter the username and password manually.

Unfortunately, configuring the program for work with DNS servers is a more difficult task. Software like Socks Capture cannot ensure correct operation of HSV. The only possible way to configure HSV is to do DNS server port mapping on the ports of your proxy.

Assume your proxy address is 192.168.1.1. And you have a list of several DNS servers:

NS1.SOMESITE.COM

NS2.SOMESITE.COM

NS3.SOMESITE.COM

Your system administrator should map:

UDP 53 port of the server NS1.SOMESITE.COM to port 53 of the proxy

UDP 53 port of the server NS2.SOMESITE.COM to port 54 of the proxy

UDP 53 port of the server NS3.SOMESITE.COM to port 55 of the proxy

Then you have to enter the following server list in High Speed Verifier (please note that the default port is 53 – standard for DNS):

192.168.1.1

192.168.1.1:54

192.168.1.1:55

Please note that in this instance you will have to transfer DNS servers downloaded from our site from HSV to the proxy settings, and to enter addresses of the ports mapped on the proxy server in HSV.
