Operational Nodes

Configure Proxy on Internet Clients

An explicit proxy can be configured globally at the system level on any Windows, Linux, Mac, or Android device. Only specific applications, like browsers, or remote desktop applications can also be configured to route the traffic via the proxy.

Configure proxy operational mode

With a range of versatile Proxy Operational configuration settings, SafeSquid can cater to diverse network requirements.

Configure SafeSquid as Forward Proxy

As a forward proxy, SafeSquid acts as an intermediary for requests from clients seeking resources from other servers, enabling organizations to protect internet users. Here, client applications are explicitly set to use a specified proxy server.

Configure SafeSquid as Reverse Proxy

As a reverse proxy, SafeSquid sits between external clients and internal servers, intercepting requests from clients and forwarding them to the appropriate server, enabling organizations to protect web resources.

Configure SafeSquid as a Transparent Proxy

To facilitate proxy-unaware applications, seamlessly redirect traffic by configuring SafeSquid as a Transparent Proxy. As no configuration is required, deployment is quick and easy.
