Proxy - Multitech RouteFinder RF820 User Manual

Proxy

While the packet filter filters the data traffic on a network level, the use of a Proxy (also called an Application
Gateway) increases the security of the RouteFinder on the application level, as there is no direct connection
between client and server.
Proxy > HTTP Proxy
The HTTP Proxy is a module built into the RouteFinder to redirect HTTP requests from the clients in the LAN
to the Internet.
HTTP Status
