Web Redirect Feature Overview and Configuration Guide

This guide describes Web Redirect and how to configure it. Web Redirect has 2 modes:

• HTTP mode, where it lets you redirect HTTP client requests to a specified URL, either periodically or on an ongoing basis. You can exclude specified client requests from being redirected.
• Proxy chaining mode, where it forwards all HTTP/HTTPS traffic to an upstream explicit proxy server, except for specified exclusions. Excluded traffic is sent directly to the Internet.

You can use HTTP mode to, for example, redirect clients to an information or advertising webpage periodically. You can use proxy chaining mode to send some or all of your HTTP/HTTPS traffic to a proxy server for extra security processing.
