Proxy services
This chapter describes how to use Setup to configure the Instant Internet unit as a
Web, DNS, or SOCKS proxy server and provides additional information on
SOCKS configuration.
Understanding proxy servers
A proxy server makes a connection to the application server for the client. The
proxy server relays data between the client and the applications server. From the
application server’s perspective, the proxy server is the client.
When a client wants to make a connection to an application server, the client
connects to the proxy server. The application server’s address and port number are
passed to the proxy server via a proxy protocol. The proxy server then connects to
the application server. After the connection to the application server is established,
the proxy server relays data between the client and the applications server.
You can use the Instant Internet unit as a:
•
Web (HTTP) proxy server
•
DNS proxy server
•
SOCKS proxy server
Using Setup
Setup is the utility you use to create and configure servers and services for the
Instant Internet unit. When you install Instant Internet, you create and configure
general servers and services.
