Example 1 The Requested Web Page is NOT on the Cache Server
When FortiWAN receives a request from a client, the request will be redirected to the cache server. The cache server
will determine if the data requested already exists or not. If not, then the request will be performed on behalf of the
client with the data returned from the web server to the client.
