Redirect Hostname (optional) — specifies an alternate hostname for the proxy. Redirect Hostname is not used by Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA).
|
To ensure that user authentication for transparent proxy occurs transparently (i.e., without prompting the user for credentials), the browser must be configured so that the Redirect Hostname is in its Intranet Zone. Typically, this is achieved by ensuring that the Redirect Hostname is in the same domain as the computer on which the browser is running. For example, if the client is workstation.example.com and the Redirect Hostname is proxyhostname.example.com, the browser allows authentication to occur transparently. Consult your browser documentation.

Authentication Mode — specifies the transparent authentication mode. Content Gateway must be set to one of the following modes:
|
![]() |
IP mode: In IP mode (the default), the client IP address is associated with a username when the session is authenticated. Requests made from that IP address are not authenticated again until the Session TTL expires (Session Time-To-Live; default = 15 minutes). Requests made from that IP address within the time-to-live are considered to be made by the user associated with that IP address.
|
![]() |
Cookie Mode: Cookie mode is used to uniquely identify users who share a single IP address, such as in terminal server environments, in proxy chaining environments, or where network address translation (NAT) occurs.
|
![]() |
Session TTL — Once the user's session is authenticated, the user credentials are cached for the time specified in Session TTL (Time-To-Live; default = 15 minutes). Supported values are 5-65535 minutes.
