Before deploying the proxy, you will have to remove any other filtering software on the device. You will also need to remove other certificates and allow pop-up windows in Safari, or whichever browser the Filter proxy is being deployed to.
For Safari, go to the Safari menu, choose Preferences> Security> uncheck Block pop-up windows.
To get the Mac PAC file, go to:
- Hāpara Filter's Admin Console> Deployment > Windows and Mac. Copy the PAC file URL from the Windows and Mac section.
- On the Mac device, open System Settings then go to Network> Advanced> Proxies> Select Auto Proxy Configuration. In the URL text box, enter the Hāpara Filter PAC file URL.
- Open the browser and click the lock icon at the search bar to show certificate.
