Welcome to the Web Gateway Forum!

Do you have image Web gateway for vmware, I would like to testing and compare with other solutions.

 Hi Peter,

There is currently no virtualisation option for Web Gateway, it is available in a physical appliance form factor only.

Is Symantec Web gateway 4.5 the enhanced version of mi5 Networks Appliances.
Is Mi5 Webgate 005 launched as Web Gateway 8450
Is Mi5 Webgate 009 launched as Web Gateway 8490

Hello DD,

Good questions.  You are correct - SWG 4.5 is the enhanced version of the formerly Mi5 Networks Appliances.  The new SWG-8450 and SWG-8490 are most comperable to the Mi5 Webgate 005 and Mi5 Webgate 009, however a direct comparison cannot be made with previous appliances due to generational differences in hardware components.

Using AD usernames and workgroups.... and creating different configuration policies for content filtering.  Is there an evaluation order to allow or block access to categories if an user belong to multiple Organizational Units or workgroups and each group has a different policy ??

Example : 

Policy # 1 - Apply to workgroup HR - All Content Filtering categories Allowed
Policy # 2 - Apply to workgroup Managers - All categories are blocked

What is the behavior for an user member of the HR and Managers groups ??

Is the evaluation order only for malware detection ??

Thanks

Are the blacklists for all computers and users ??

Is there any way to allow the downloading of file extensions blocked in the Blacklists entry list for any specific username, group or organizational unit ??

Thanks

Is there any way to see the detailed URL accesed by any user ??

The drill down reports end with info like : google.com as the visited site. 

Any configuration allow us to see the full URL ??   something like :

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=beretta+9mm&aq=3&oq=berett&aqi=g10

Thanks

I am supporting an agency that has installed a Gateway 360R.  When they enable loadbalancing they start to drop our secure connection.  We know from past experiance that devices that do not have the ability to loadbalance by session or IP have this problem, and Symantec mentions this issue in Document ID: 2004120610281454.  The device has the latest firmware, are there any current solutions to this issue?

msco9,

The Symantec Gateway 360R is a different product than the Symantec Web Gateway which is covered in this forum.  Please contact Support directly for assistance: http://www.symantec.com/business/support/contact_t...

Is there any material from Symantec that compars the SWG 4.5 product to other solutions (e.g. Bluecoat -URL and Finjan - malware?
