Proxy Server
A proxy server is a computer that acts as an intermediary between a desktop computer and the internet and allows a client machine to make an indirect connection to network servers and services. There are many reasons why you might want to include a proxy server on your network:
- To share internet connection on a LAN
- To speed up internet surfing
- To hide the IP address of the client computer for anonymous surfing
- To implement internet access control
- To scan outbound content
- To circumvent regional restrictions
