socks.config

The socks.config file specifies:

SOCKS servers that the proxy must use to access specific origin servers, and the order in which the proxy goes through the SOCKS server list.
Origin servers that Content Gateway accesses directly, without going through a SOCKS server.

Note: It is recommended that all SOCKS configuration be performed in the Content Gateway manager.

Important: After you modify this file, you must restart the proxy.

Traffic that does not match a manually configured rule is handled via a default rule. A default rule is constructed for each SOCKS server with the default option enabled in the Socks Servers table. Default rules are created automatically and displayed on the SOCKS Server page. Default rules are not written in the socks.config file. The destination IP address is “All.”
