Accessing FortiGuard via a web proxy
Using the CLI, you can configure the FortiWeb appliance to connect through an explicit (non-transparent) web proxy server to the FortiGuard Distribution Network (FDN) for signature updates.
For example, you might enter the following commands:
config system autoupdate tunneling
set status enable
set address 192.168.1.10
set port 8080
set username FortiWeb
set password myPassword1
end
For details, see the
FortiWeb CLI Reference.
The FortiWeb appliance connects to the proxy using the HTTP
CONNECT method, as described in
RFC 2616.
