User guidelines
By default, proxied HTTP requests cannot trigger Web authentication but are silently dropped. To
allow such HTTP requests to trigger Web authentication, specify the port numbers of the Web proxy
servers on the device.
You can repeat this command to add the port numbers of multiple Web proxy servers.
If a user's browser uses the Web Proxy Auto-Discovery (WPAD) protocol to discover Web proxy
servers, you must perform the following tasks:
Add the port numbers of the Web proxy servers on the device.
Configure authentication-free rules to allow user packets destined for the IP address of the
WPAD server to pass without authentication.
For Web authentication to support Web proxy:
You must add the port numbers of the Web proxy servers on the device.
Users must make sure their browsers that use a Web proxy server do not use the proxy server
for the listening IP address of the local portal Web service. Then, HTTP packets that the Web
authentication user sends to the local portal Web service are not sent to the Web proxy server.
