swi_service.exe http traffic

Hello,

I have just rolled out Sophos across our server farm and have notice that what I believe is the Live Protection service(swi_service.exe) is contacting external ip addresses on port 80 at various times during the day. 

I would like to configure this to use a proxy server if possible but have not been able to work out how?

I have read that there is the utility SavProxy.exe to configure the proxy which I have ran and they appear to be correct. There are no proxy bypasses set and the proxy server name is correctly set to my proxy server. However http traffic is still sent out.

Any help would be very much appreciated!

Thanks

James

  • Hello James,

    Amazon is hosting (part of) the Cloud services, so the addresses could be correct. You could check whether http.00.s.sophosxl.net or .com resolves to them.
    Strange, but anyway swi_service only acts if some other process makes an HTTP request. Which one would this be on the servers?
