EZproxy Authentication with the DCS

EZProxy authentication can be used for students accessing content off campus (or on campus if you do not have  IP authentication  setup for this purpose).

Please contact  [e-mail] to request integration with the DCS.

To set up on EZproxy we will need your EZproxy URL, an example of which is below.

• EZproxy prefix URL:  https://ezproxy1.cla.ac.uk/login?url=
• Also, the IP address (or range) of your EZproxy Server

 The following lines must also be added to your EZproxy server config.txt file: 
Title Digital Content Store 

URL https://contentstore.cla.co.uk 
 
Note: Key fields may be different based on your actual version

Below is how this appears in the DCS:

It would also be useful to have a test username and password for CLA to test.

You may want to forward this request to your IT Department to help.

If testing in demo first, the lines that must be added to your EZproxy server config.txt file should be:

Title Digital Content Store  
URL https://test-dcs.cla.co.uk

If you have any questions about the integration, just email  [e-mail].
