Proxy Server; Configuring The Proxy Server - Xerox B1025 System Administrator Manual

Proxy Server

A proxy server acts as a go-between for clients seeking services and servers that provide them. The
proxy server filters client requests and if the requests meet the proxy server filtering rules, it grants
the request and allows the connection.
A proxy server has two main purposes:
• To keep any devices behind it anonymous for security purposes.
• To cache content from resources, such as Web pages from a Web server, to increase resource
access time.
