# Network

Use the **Network** tab page to configure a proxy server if you have to use one to connect to the remote computer.

To configure a proxy server, select the **Use proxy server** option and then select the protocol from the following list:

* **SOCKS4**. Enable this option to transparently use the service of a network firewall.
* **SOCKS4A**. Enable this option to allow a client that cannot connect to resolve the destination host’s name to specify it.
* **SOCKS5**. Enable this option to be able to connect using authentication.
* **HTTP 1.1**. Enable this option to connect using the standard HTTP 1.1 protocol connections.

Specify the proxy host domain name or IP address and the port number.

For SOCKS5 and HTTP 1.1 protocols, select **Proxy requires authentication** and enter user credentials.
