UAG CLI Reference Guide 124
CHAPTER 17
HTTP Redirect
This chapter shows you how to configure HTTP redirection on your UAG.
17.1 HTTP Redirect Overview
HTTP redirect forwards the client’s HTTP request (except HTTP traffic destined for the UAG) to a web
proxy server.
17.1.1 Web Proxy Server
A proxy server helps client devices make indirect requests to access the Internet or outside network
resources/services. A proxy server can act as a firewall or an ALG (application layer gateway)
between the private network and the Internet or other networks. It also keeps hackers from
knowing internal IP addresses.
17.2 HTTP Redirect Commands
The following table identifies the values required for many of these commands. Other input values
are discussed with the corresponding commands.
The following table describes the commands available for HTTP redirection.
You must use the
configure terminal command to enter the configuration mode before you can use these
commands.
