What is the proxy address in Active Directory?
The Active Directory proxy address is a special Active Directory object that defines how the Active Directory server is referenced in DNS.
It is defined as part of the global catalog, which is a central database for all of the information about users, computers, and groups on a domain.
The proxy address is used by domain controllers (DCs) to find the location of objects. A DC performs an LDAP query to a remote domain controller using a query protocol (TCP port 389), and the DC then returns the response back to the client.
A query to Active Directory requires an exchange of information with other domain controllers. The proxy address lets Active Directory users and computers reference themselves within Active Directory. The proxy address is also used when Active Directory clients are queried for network information.
When setting the proxy address in Active Directory, ensure that the DNS suffix matches the DNS suffix that the computer will use when querying Active Directory. The proxy address is also available to the Global Catalog in the form of a DNS resource record. This is because the proxy address is part of the global catalog. You can find the proxy address in Active Directory by looking at the CN attribute value.
For example, the following configuration allows you to use the LDAP query protocol to retrieve data from Active Directory. The default user and computer accounts are members of the group domain controllers. To ensure this, set the proxy address using the domain DNS suffix or the NetBIOS name of the computer.

You can verify that the DNS suffix matches the proxy address by examining the Active Directory proxy address. To verify that the DNS suffix matches the proxy address, run the following command on a computer that is running Windows Server 2025. `# netsh interface ipv4 show subnet

If there is no v4 or v6 version of an address being shown on a site, chances are the website is located on a server in a country where v4 or v6 is in use.

How do I add a proxy address attribute in Active Directory?
I'm trying to add a proxy address attribute to the user profile of my users in Active Directory.
I have a user called john doe and I want to add the following attributes to him: ProxyAddress="10.2" ProxyBypass="127.1" Is there any way to add these attributes through ADUC? Or do I have to go into AD directly? Open the Properties of the user in Active Directory Users and Computers. Go to the tab labeled Advanced. In the "Attributes" list box, you should see a proxy address attribute. Double-click it and add your new attribute. Save it.
You can verify that the attribute was added correctly by opening the same User Properties dialog again, and double-clicking on the "ProxyAddress" attribute. If you are using ADUC, then you would open an "Edit an object" window (such as when double-clicking on a User in the "Users and Computers" tree) and find the user you want to add the attribute to. Go to the Properties of the user, and look for the "Advanced" tab. There you can set all kinds of attributes. It's probably not that simple, but I bet you can find some way to do it.
There are two different ProxyAddress attributes. The first is used when the ProxyEnable attribute is set to true, the second is used when the ProxyEnable attribute is set to false.
