Default Re: transprent proxy

Scansafe actually have a document on exactly how to configure the Check Point software to do that. Any Check Point platform should do as long as it can support the number of users that you want it to protect. They should have provided that document too you, if not your Scansafe reseller should be able to get for you.

All the check point does is a http redirect and directs all http/https requests off to the Scansafe Web Filtering.

To me this isn't a Transparent Proxy. Transparent Proxy is what Scansafe are doing.

If you do go with a Nokia avoid the IP260 as painfully slow, go with an IP290 or look at the UTM450 model as you get the license with that.
Alternatively if all that need it for is this then just get a cheap PC with two NICs and install SPLAT/Check Point on that. What you need is a Check Point function so the platform won't matter.
