Table 1. Default elements for Sidewinder Proxy
Type of Element Element Description
Protocol Configuration > NGFW > Other Elements > Protocols > By Protocol Type > Proxy
SSM HTTP Proxy

Allows you to use Sidewinder HTTP Proxy in Service elements, and provides Protocol Parameters for detailed control of the HTTP and HTTPS protocols.

This Protocol element is automatically selected in the properties of the default SSM HTTP and SSM HTTPS Proxy Service elements.

SSM SSH Proxy

Allows you to use Sidewinder SSH Proxy in Service elements, and provides Protocol Parameters for detailed control of the SSH protocol.

This Protocol element is automatically selected in the properties of the default SSM SSH Service element.

SSM TCP Proxy Allows you to use Sidewinder TCP Proxy in Service elements.
Note: This Protocol element has no configurable Protocol Parameters.
SSM UDP Proxy Allows you to use Sidewinder UDP Proxy in Service elements.
Note: This Protocol element has no configurable Protocol Parameters.
[Protocol] with [Proxy Protocol] These Protocol elements combine a standard Protocol element with a Sidewinder Proxy Protocol element. Combined Protocol elements make the Protocol Parameters from both Protocol elements available in the same Service element.
