2. Proxy Setting for Enterprise
Enterprises usually isolate their intranet and internet by using more elaborated network architecture. Many
enterprises have their own proxy server which is usually at intranet or DMZ under the firewall protection.
In enterprises, network managers or MIS staff may often ask their users to enable their proxy setting of the browsers
such as IE and Firefox to reduce the internet access loading. Therefore some proxy configurations in the Gateway
need to be set.
Some enterprises will automatically redirect packets to proxy server by using core switch or Layer 7
devices. However, the clients do not need to enable the proxy settings of their browsers, and the
administrator does not need to set any proxy configuration in the Gateway.
