MS Proxy 2.0 Deployment

by kurt g . Updated 25 years, 5 months ago

I have a WinNT 4.0 network that connects to the Internet via a T1 line. I have loaded MS Proxy 2.0 on a WinNT 4.0 Server and I want to use it to cache web pages and provide basic firewall protection. However, I am unsure of where to place this server. The T1 goes through the CSU/DSUs then into an unmanaged hub (and from there to a primary switch/router). Previously, I had a content-filtration server on this hub and it worked beautifully. In this case, my Proxy Server is multi-homed and I need to force all traffic through the Proxy. So, will it work simply connected to this hub? Or, do I have to bypass the hub and connect one NIC to the LAN and one to the WAN?

HELP!

Thanks,
Kurt G.
