Advanced Sidewinder Proxy settings enable optional behavior or set parameters.
Each setting has a name and a value. Some settings are specific to individual proxies. Most settings can be used with any proxy, or for all
proxies if you set them using shared proxy properties. If you do not specify a value, the default values are used.
Note: Changing the advanced
settings requires detailed knowledge of the protocols involved and how the parameters affect your environment. We do not recommend changing
the advanced settings unless you are instructed to do so by
Forcepoint support.
In an environment with Master NGFW Engines and Virtual Firewalls, some advanced settings apply
only to Master NGFW Engines, and some advanced settings apply only to Virtual Firewalls. Settings
that do not apply to the type of engine on which they are configured are ignored. For example, if you configure a Master NGFW Engine advanced setting for a Virtual Firewall, the setting has no effect on the Virtual
Firewall.
Advanced settings that you configure for a Virtual Firewall affect only the individual Virtual Firewall. Advanced settings that you configure
for a Master NGFW Engine affect all Virtual Firewalls that are hosted by the Master NGFW Engine.
