XG 550 FullGuard Plus - Capability

Afternoon All,

My company just recently purchased XG 550 FullGuard Plus Firewall with the promise that it's functionality was able to cater for our requirements.

We currently have 2 links primary AND secondary. 

Primary WAN link connects to a ISP and the secondary WAN Link connects to a gov't proxy ISP. (Secondary link is also utilized as traffic Load Balancing via Proxy.)

Both LINKS are always active.

QUES.. Can the XG 550 be capable of operating as a firewall and as a Proxy Server, simultaneously?..

  • Hi Anthony,

    Yes, it can. Ihe XG software comes with http proxy, mail proxy, IPS, IDS, dual antivirus, and a new feature SSL/TLS scanning.

    I would suggest you talk to your reseller/partner about getting access to the training and some professional support time.

  • Thanks for replying.

    We were informed that the XG 550 can act as a proxy server, however it can ONLY be applicable for ALL WAN connections.

    Our network configuration requires 1 WAN Proxy only the other WAN connection is not filtered.

  • Hi Anthony,

    not true, you can setup a firewall rule to use proxy and point at WAN 1 and a firewall rule (no proxy) to point at WAN 2.

    I assume you have  large user base and complex applications having purchased a XG550, so I definitely recommend you get some paid support hours.
