Using ASA to proxy Internet traffic

[Kevin Melton]

We want to use our ASA appliance at the edge of our network to send out our Https and http traffic to our AT&T Filtering server on the Internet for policy enforcement.

What specific features do I enable to make this happen?

Thanks

Kevin,

The ASA only supports passing URL's for filtering if the filtering server is one of the below:-

Websense Enterprise-filters HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP. It is supported by PIX firewall version 5.3 and later.

Secure Computing SmartFilter, formerly known as N2H2-filters HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and long URL filtering.

If the filtering server is none of the above - the only other way is to purchase the Content Security SSM for the ASA.

Do you guys use the Content Security SSM?

I know a number of customers that use the CSC module with a great deal of success.
