The socks.accelerate property controls the SOCKS proxy handoff to other protocol agents.

Syntax

socks.accelerate(noautohttpaol_immsn_imyahoo_im)

The default value is auto.

where:

•no—The SOCKS proxy does not hand off the transaction to another proxy agent, but tunnels the SOCKS transaction.

•auto—The handoff is determined by the URL scheme.

Any other value forces the SOCKS proxy to hand off the transaction to the agent for the indicated protocol.

The socks.accelerated= condition can be used to test which agent was selected for handoff. The tunneled= condition can be used to test for unaccelerated (tunneled) SOCKS transactions.

After the handoff, the transaction is subject to policy as a proxy transaction for the appropriate protocol. Within that policy, the socks= condition can be used to test for transactions use SOCKS for client communication.
