WebGate between Client and Proxy Server (Network Configuration 1)
In this configuration, the other proxy server can be attacked by malicious software. If you
want complete protection for your proxy server (normally), network configuration 2 is
recommended. See
Configuration 2)
This configuration is suitable when the proxy is connected to other servers and the
Clients need to be protected from infection. WebGate can be installed directly on
the proxy server or on another computer.
WebGate directs the Client's inquiries through the proxy server to the Internet and
scans the answers from the Internet, which are received through the proxy server.
The access to infected files from a Website is blocked and only not infected files are
directed to the Clients.
This example assumes the following proxy server configuration:
So, the proxy server communicates with the Clients over port 3128.
