If this option is checked, you should set tunneling parameters at the Specifying tunneling parameters step of the wizard.

 

Tunneling

RadioButton HTTP tunneling

Select this option to access PostgreSQL server through the HTTP protocol in case of Internet access through HTTP proxy only, or if the server does not allow direct connections to PostgreSQL, but allows HTTP connections. The next step of the wizard allows you to define the corresponding parameters for HTTP tunneling.

 

Click the Next button to proceed to the Setting specific options step or to the Selecting databases step of the wizard, depending on whether the CheckBox Register a single database option has been selected or not.
