identification protocol used by the SOCKS gateway. The machine ID should be
configured to be the same as the appliance’s name.
SOCKS proxy

supports both
SOCKSv4/4a and SOCKSv5; however, because of increased username and password
authentication capabilities and compression support, Blue Coat recommends that
you use SOCKS v5.

reverse proxy mode.
