Bypass rules that are generated dynamically are purged after a Content Gateway restart. If you want to preserve dynamically generated rules, you can save a snapshot of the current set of bypass rules. See Viewing the current set of bypass rules.
To prevent Content Gateway from bypassing certain IP addresses dynamically, you can set dynamic deny bypass rules in the bypass.config file. Deny bypass rules can prevent the proxy from bypassing itself. For information about setting dynamic deny bypass rules, see bypass.config.
Content Gateway tallies bypassed requests for each type of dynamic bypass trigger (for example, requests bypassed in response to a 401 error). View these statistics on the page of the Content Gateway manager, under HTTP Bypass Statistics.
