ZyWALL USG 1000 User’s Guide

HTTP redirect forwards the client’s HTTP request (except HTTP traffic destined for 
the ZyWALL) to a web proxy server. In the following example, proxy server A is 
connected to the DMZ interface. When a client connected to the LAN zone wants 
to open a web page, its HTTP request is redirected to proxy server A first. If proxy 
server A cannot find the web page in its cache, a policy route allows it to access 
the Internet to get them from a server. Proxy server A then forwards the response 
to the client.
