AWG - Install possible with only one NIC ?

gafrol
Hi all,

I have a hosted VMWare Server running in a remote Datacenter. I have six useable public IP address and one phys. NIC. Can I still install and use Astaro Web Gateway ?
Until now I'm using Squid with this setup but I would like to replace it with AWG.

thanks and kind rgds
Roland

    Thanks for pointing me to the thread but after going through it I don't think that's what I need to do. I have a squid proxy with just one interface and one public ip. Now I would like to replace the squid proxy with the Astaro Web Gateway with the same physical setup.

    Any ideas how to achieve this ?

    Hey

    The astaro allows you to setup multiple IPs for a single interface.

    I know about networking but not about the particular web gateway itself. Would it be used as a proxy server for your servers/workstations using the web. Can you tell me a litlte more about the functionality.

    I WIKI'd Squid Proxy. It is tough to use the gateway as a gateway if you do not have incoming and outgoing network interfaces. You can setup multiple virtual switches for use with the same network interface on your server. Those switches would then allow invidual VM networks. I need more info on exactly the function

    Thanks for your input. The Squid serves proxy request from internet connected PC's. There is no internal network only external (internet).

    PC-----> Proxy Server -------> Webserver

    I hope this helps to understand.

    Roland, Astaro used squid in earlier versions, so I would expect Astaro to be more flexible today rather than less.

    I don't understand why you would want a proxy server open to use by the entire Internet.  What are you trying to accomplish?

    It's not open to everyone. Users need to authenticate . Think of it as an external AV/URL Filter/ Content Filter Service.

    OK, then I think wudukes solution is the one you need.  You likely need to bridge the two VLAN interfaces.
