Overview of Intercepting Web Requests
The Web Security appliance intercepts requests that are forwarded to it by clients or other devices over 
the network. 
The appliance works in conjunction with other network devices to intercept traffic. These may be 
ordinary switches, transparent redirection devices, network taps, and other proxy servers or Web 
Security appliances.
