Configuring ISDN, ADSL and DHCP settings.
Configuring Web Proxy Settings
Note:
As the majority of Internet Service Providers (ISPs) do not use web proxy servers, it is unlikely
that you will need to make changes on this screen. If your ISP does use a proxy server, you should
already be aware of the configuration details. If you do not, consult your ISP.
Some ISPs require you to connect to the Internet via a web proxy server. The Setup program’s
Web proxy option enables you to configure SmoothWall Express to use such a proxy server. This
ensures that SmoothWall Express will be able to connect to the Internet, register itself and
download any updates available from SmoothWall Limited.
To configure web proxy settings required by your ISP:
Note:
These settings do not apply to your SmoothWall Express proxy service.
1
From the Section menu, select
Web proxy
. The following screen is displayed:
2
Enter the following information:
Note:
The settings here have nothing to do with SmoothWall Express’s own web proxy service, which
is configured separately using the web-based interface. See the
SmoothWall Express
Administrator’s Guide
for more information.
Field
Enter
Hostname
The hostname of the web proxy your ISP requires you to use to access the
Internet. Contact your ISP if you are unsure of the address.
Port
The port number of the port used by the web proxy. 80 and 8080 are the most
commonly used ports for web proxies. Contact your ISP if you are unsure of the
number.
