Web Proxy
Forwarding
When this option is enabled, all outgoing connections destined for the proxy server
specified in
Web Proxy Interception Settings
will be intercepted. These
connections will be redirected to a specified web proxy server and port number. Web
proxy interception settings and proxy server settings for each WAN can be specified
after selecting
Enable
.
DNS Forwarding
When this option is enabled, all outgoing DNS lookups will be intercepted and
redirected to the built-in DNS name server. If any LAN device is using the DNS name
servers of a WAN connection, you may want to enable this option to enhance the
DNS availability without modifying the DNS server setting of the clients. The built-in
DNS name server will distribute DNS lookups to corresponding DNS servers of all
available WAN connections. In this case, DNS service will not be interrupted, even if
any WAN connection is down.
Custom Service
Forwarding
When custom service forwarding is enabled, outgoing traffic with the specified TCP
port will be forwarded to a local or remote server by defining its IP address and port
number.
19.8.1
SMTP Forwarding
Some ISPs require their users to send e-mails via the ISP’s SMTP server. All outgoing
SMTP connections are blocked except those connecting to the ISP’s. Pepwave routers
support intercepting and redirecting all outgoing SMTP connections (destined for TCP
port 25) via a WAN connection to the WAN’s corresponding SMTP server.
To enable the feature, select
Enable
under
SMTP Forwarding Setup
. Check
Enable
Forwarding
for the WAN connection(s) that needs forwarding. Under
SMTP Server
,
enter the ISP’s e-mail server host name or IP address. Under
SMTP Port
, enter the
TCP port number for each WAN.
The Pepwave router will intercept SMTP connections. Choose a WAN port according to
the outbound policy, and then forward the connection to the SMTP server if the chosen
WAN has enabled forwarding. If the forwarding is disabled for a WAN connection,
SMTP connections for the WAN will be simply be forwarded to the connection’s original
destination.
Note
If you want to route all SMTP connections only to particular WAN connection(s), you should create a custom rule
