Configuring the Proxy Server
The MLR 3G 2.0 provides a proxy server. This does
not
serve as a cache for frequently ac-
cessed websites. It is used to delay the connection timeouts for dial-up connections that
load slowly (e.g. via modem) and to filter undesired URLs. (e.g. www.xyz.xx).
The proxy supports the HTTP and HTTPS protocols.
Configuration with the web interface
In order to
enable the proxy server of the MLR 3G 2.0
, check in the menu
"Server services" on the page "Proxy" the checkbox "Activate proxy server".
Enter in the entry field "
Port of proxy server
" the port, which you want to use
to access the proxy server from the internal network at the IP address of the
MLR 3G 2.0.
In order to
terminate connections,which seem to be inactive, after a certain
time
, you can configure the time in seconds in the entry field "Timeout for in-
active connections".
In order to
avoid overloading the MLR 3G 2.0
, you can restrict the number of
clients which can connect to the MLR 3G 2.0 at the same time. Enter the
maximum number of simultaneously authorized clients in the entry field
"Maximum amount of allowed clients".
In order to
increase the availability of the proxy
, you can define a minimum
number of proxy server processes. Enter the desired number of proxy server
processes that are always running on the MLR 3G 2.0 into the entry field
"Minimum amount of free proxy servers".
In order to
avoid overloading the MLR 3G 2.0 with proxy requests
, you can de-
fine a maximum number of proxy server processes. An individual proxy server
process is started on the MLR 3G 2.0 for each client request. Enter the desired
maximum number of simultaneous proxy server processes in the entry field
"Maximum amount of free proxy servers" for this. If more requests are re-
ceived than proxy servers are available, the additional requests are rejected.
