EMS server through Proxy server

Does anyone know how to configure EMS server to browse and access Fortiguard services via proxy?

The server needs to browse through a proxy server, we configured for Windows Server 2019 to browse through it and it works fine, but we can't connect to FortiCloud server from EMS and download FortiClient Installer.

Through the browser we open the Fortinet pages, but not from the EMS Server (as shown in the images).

 

¿Alguien sabe cómo configurar el servidor EMS para navegar y acceder a los servicios de Fortiguard a través de un proxy?

El servidor debe navegar a través de un servidor proxy, configuramos para que el Windows Server 2019 navegue por él y funciona bien, pero no podemos conectar al servidor FortiCloud desde el EMS y descargar FortiClient Installer.

A través del navegador abrimos las paginas de Fortinet, pero desde el Servidor EMS no (como se muestra en las imágenes).

Hi all, for your information, Forticlient EMS server doesnt support a proxy for download signature AV/ binary...
Only 2 ways : 

-directly from internet (fortiguard)

-from fortimanager

According to FortiEMS Docs, there is not possible to use proxy to access FortiGuard Services 
System requirements | FortiClient 7.2.1 | Fortinet Document Library
In this case you can use FortiManager for updates.

It doesn’t support a proxy. You’ll need to expose it to the internet (port 8013) for remote management anyway

First things first, you gotta make sure your Proxy server is set up right. It’s like the bouncer at the club; it needs to know who to let in! Then, you gotta configure your EMS server to play nice with the Proxy server. It’s like teaching your dog new tricks; takes some patience but worth it in the end!Now, here’s where it gets interesting - lightningproxies.net. Ever heard of it? It’s like having a secret weapon in your arsenal! These proxies work like a charm with EMS servers through Proxy setups. Smooth like butter!
