Web Proxy Forwarding
A Web proxy server intercepts HTTP requests and determines if it has stored copies
of the requested Web pages. If it does not, the proxy completes the request to the
server on the Internet, returning the requested information to the user and also
saving it locally for future requests.
Setting up a Web proxy server on a network can be cumbersome, because each
computer on the network must be configured to direct Web requests to the server.
