Content Gateway (web proxy)

Content Gateway is a high-performance web proxy. It is installed on every Forcepoint Web Security appliance. In addition to providing core web proxy request handling and page caching (optional), it applies Forcepoint real-time threat analytics and website classification to protect the network from attacks and malicious and undesirable content.

Content Gateway includes:
  • Real-time HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP content analysis
  • Real-time categorization of websites
  • Enterprise web caching (optional)
  • A web-based graphical user interface for configuring, monitoring, and managing Content Gateway.

Once installed and running, the Content Gateway Manager is accessed by entering:
https://<Appliance C interface IP address>:8081

Log on with “admin” and the password established during firstboot.
