discussion comment 13 Jan 2012

KevK76 commented on: Web Gateway (VE) Network config

Actually one thing to point out here, Symantec don't recommend you run the Web Gateway Virtual Edition in Inline mode, this is because we don't support the hardware bypass as we do with physical appliances. When you run the Web ...

KevK76 commented on: SWG 5.0 Virtual Edition - Need Root Password for Maintenance

Well that's a great advantage of running virtual, certainly easy to build a new appliance and get it back online quickly. :)

discussion comment 15 Dec 2011

KevK76 commented on: Symantec Messaging Gateway 9.5 and HA

Just to add to what's been previously stated you can have a second scanner up and running which can send inbound and outbound mail if you configure things that way. The important thing to remember here is that you will need to somehow ...

KevK76 commented on: Clevernews spam

You might want to look at upgrading to take advantage of the latest product features available(like the new verdicts previously mentioned) and there are probably some other things you can do improve effectiveness like enable Probe ...

KevK76 commented on: Proxy on Web gateway

Can you give some detail on the problems you are having? Is it a physical or virtual appliance you are setting up? Have you read through the Administration Guide and do you have any questions based on what you've read? It's ...

KevK76 commented on: SWG 5.0 Virtual Edition - Need Root Password for Maintenance

Hey Dude, What you'll want to do is ring into Support, they'll be able to provide assistance with the problem. Best Regards, Kevin

discussion comment 02 Nov 2011

KevK76 commented on: SWG - SSH/remote install

A few things to point out, the 8450 doesn't actually have a DRAC card. Also depending on how you deploy the Web Gateway there is normally some cable changing that needs to happen during the install so doing tihs remotely is going to be ...

discussion comment 02 Nov 2011

KevK76 commented on: SWG - Proxy chain

Hey Guys, Just wanted to clarify that although the Web Gateway can be run as a proxy it can't be chained and traffic that hits the Web Gateway proxy needs to be destined for the internet and not another proxy in a ...

discussion comment 18 Oct 2011

KevK76 commented on: Inbound vs Outbound (and integration with Vontu DLP)

Hi Andrey, Keep in mind it's not really possible to pipe all traffic through the interface, the Outbound IP will only accept connections from hosts that are defined under the 'Accept outbound mail connections from the following ...

KevK76 commented on: SWG - NTLM problem

Hi Viktor, Have you tried entering your pre-Windows 2000 domain name as the realm ie. 'Teszt' instead of 'Teszt.local'? Cheers, Kevin

discussion comment 26 Sep 2011

KevK76 commented on: SWG 5.0 network config questions

Hi owilson, unfortunately it's looking like WCCP support will most likely not make it into our next major product release and it now looks like we probably won't see WCCP support until 2013. It's probably worth ...

discussion comment 12 Sep 2011

KevK76 commented on: Blocking specific HTTPS website through SWG without proxy?

Hi Amar, Came across this KB on the topic, looks like it was published before the release of V5, but I think the key point is that if you are looking to block access to https sites you need to be running in one of the proxy modes and need to be ...

discussion comment 05 Sep 2011

KevK76 commented on: Welcome to the Web Gateway Forum!

So just to add a bit more clarity here, as mentioned in the SKU the hardware does come with a 3 year warranty. If a customer has hardware problems they log a support case with Symantec, Symantec then arrange with Dell for the hardware to be ...

discussion comment 28 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Network Configuration

Okay so if you are looking to test the Proxy only mode and not the Inline + Proxy mode, then yes you only need two interfaces. The management interface and the Lan side of the Inline interface. Keep in mind these ...

discussion comment 28 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Network Configuration

Well you don't use all the interfaces in all modes, so in your situation you wouldn't actually need an interface for the Monitor interface as it won't be used, but you would need three available(one for management, one for the WAN ...

discussion comment 22 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Deleting emails having *.exe files in *.zip attachments

Hi Enzo, If you create a rule to delete executables, we should still be able to identify an exe even if it is contained in a zip file. We won't be able to do this if the zip file is password protected. So really you should be able ...

discussion comment 22 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Unscannable file rule getting me in trouble

To rule SMS for Exchange out of the problem I'd probably configure an SMTP client like(Outlook Express) to send a mail with a working copy of the attachment directly to the Exchange server and see what comes through ...

discussion comment 20 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Web Gateway 8450

Correct, you'll need to physically attach a monitor and keyboard and follow the instructions I mentioned. Kevin

discussion comment 20 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Web Gateway 8450

Hi Renin, So when you click the button to test connectivity to the Threat Center then you get a message back saying you connected sucessfully? Also are you still not able to reboot the box even though you've already rebooted ...

discussion comment 19 Jul 2011

KevK76 commented on: Content Filter

Being an Endpoint customer doesn't entitle you to use the Web Gateway, but I'm guessing you are probably a Protection Suite Enterprise Edition customer which does entitle you to a Web Gateway base license and other products such ...
