This supplement provides additional information for installing and configuring Websense® Web Security or Websense Web Filter with the Squid Web Proxy Cache. See the Installation Guide for complete Websense software installation instructions.
When Websense software is integrated with Squid, the following components are configured differently than in a stand-alone installation:
-Websense Filtering plug-in for Squid must be installed on each Squid Web Proxy Cache machine to allow the Squid Web Proxy Cache to communicate with Filtering Service.
-Network Agent is configured to manage only the Internet protocols not managed by the Squid Web Proxy Cache.
If you plan to use Network Agent to filter non-HTTP protocols or perform logging, you can install Network Agent on the same machine as Squid Web Proxy Cache to ensure traffic visibility. Having Network Agent on the same machine as Squid eliminates the need to configure port-forwarding or port-mirroring on a switch to provide the necessary visibility.
