How do i configure Burp

Sameer | Last updated: Jan 10, 2020 11:12AM UTC

Hi Team, I have recently installed Burp on my kali linux machine and now trying to configure it accordingly. The problem that I am facing is that in my Firefox browser, the manual proxy configuration option that has the HTTP Proxy IP address is an IP that is different from my machine IP and I need to change it to 127.0.0.1 on port 8080 as per Burp, when I do so, I am unable to access the Internet even though my burp interception is turned off. As I revert back to the existing HTTP Proxy, I am able to access the internet. What can I possibly do to divert my traffic via burp without changing the proxy values?
