Add the following properties to java.extended.properties in startProxyAgent.tra (under $TIBCO_HOME\policyagent\instances\agent-&ltport#>\bin directory) and restart Proxy Agent:

-Dcom.amberpoint.net.http.client.proxy.host=&ltproxyHost>

In addition, you might be interested in the below property also to prevent calls to localhost and machine within the network going through the proxy server.

-Dcom.amberpoint.net.http.client.proxy.nonProxyHosts="localhost|127.0.0.1|myHost.myDomain.com|anotherHost.myDomain.com"
