Re: Help Checkpoint Firewall-1 NGX : stream redirecting

You're correct, he won't need to do anything like changing proxy
settings in the browser, provided he uses UFP to redirect outbound HTTP
requests to this URL filtering server.

However, transparent proxy will *not* work if transparent
*authentication* is needed or desired (quite commonly this is the case
actually). Usually these 'transparent' *authenticated* solutions
authenticate against the MS AD In order to do that, the firewall would
need to be on the domain (which Check Point, wisely, doesn't recommend)
or to have UserAuthority agent on one of the AD controllers.
