  • That hasn't been seen anywhere before - I guess that "request misses host part" means that one of your devices is sending something on port 80 that is not a properly-formed web request and that the Proxy is running in Transparent mode.

    If you need a DNAT on port 80, you will get Loopback errors unless you disable that check.  Otherwise, it should be left checked.

  • Hi Bob,

    Thanks for helping me out here :0

    I am running in transparent mode. However, do not DNAT on port 80. I gues the user portal is the only thing that runs on 80 atm.

    Also, i keep getting the following 3 errors repeatedly.
