Proxy support for multiple IP's

[baseline]

I have a Windows 2003 Server machine with 4 IP addresses. I would like to setup a proxy server on each of the 4 IP's. This could be 4 separate proxy servers each bound to a different IP or one proxy server bound to each of the 4 IP's simultaneously.

Basically I want the clients on the LAN to be able to choose which source IP they will send their traffic through. Will WinGate do this? If not, can someone recommend another product that can?

Thanks,

Jonathan

Theses 4 IPs that you mentioned - are they internal or external IPs? Wingate does support gateway scheduling as well as automatic proxy configuration files - the latter option gives your client software an ability to choose proxy server to connect through.

1. You can select the source ip address or the gateway to be used for the particular WWW Proxy Service that you create - In the example there are three different gateways and I am show editing one Gateway to use a different source ip address.




2. When choosing which ip address to bind the proxy to, you can set it based off the individual ip addresses, or adapter markings ( generally being Internal / External - Internal adapters usually point towards the private network where External adapters usually point towards the internet).



3. Regarding Genie's reference to Web Proxy Auto Detection (WPAD) files, there is more information in the following knowledge base article:
