You can configure Secure Web Gateway to use an upstream proxy to connect to the Internet. In addition to enabling the upstream proxy, you can configure:
- The address of the upstream proxy to use. Secure Web Gateway uses this proxy to connect to the internet.
- URLs or URL masks that specify addresses to bypass. Secure Web Gateway does not use the upstream proxy server to retrieve these URLs.
- The method of authentication, including the user name and password that Secure Web Gateway uses to authenticate access when connecting to the upstream proxy server.
