Setting up proxy services

Configuring the outgoing SMTP proxy

Use the Outgoing SMTP Proxy dialog box to set the parameters for traffic going from your Trusted and Optional network to the world. You must already have an SMTP Proxy service icon in the Services Arena. Double-click the icon to open the service’s Properties dialog box:

2Click Outgoing.

The Outgoing SMTP Proxy dialog box appears, displaying the General tab.

3To add a new header pattern, type the pattern name in the text box to the left of the Add button. Click Add.

5 Set a time-out value in seconds.

6 To modify logging properties, click the Logging tab.

Add masquerading options

SMTP masquerading converts an address pattern behind the firewall into an anonymized public address. For example, the internal address pattern might be inside.salesdept.bigcompany.com, which would be anonymized to their public address bigcompany.com.

1Click the Masquerading tab.

2Enter the official domain name.

This is the name you want visible to the outside world.

3In the Substitute text box, type the address patterns that are behind your firewall

that you want replaced by the official domain name.

All patterns entered here appear as the official domain name outside the Firebox.

4In the Don’t Substitute text box, type the address patterns that you want to appear “as is” outside the firewall.

5Enable other masquerading properties according to your security policy preferences.
