we should add execption for Block unscannable and encrypted files as this field can be enable/disable form http proxy but i think i will always keep it enable and let add execption to user or director (to send and recive password protected file )

I am able to blacklist .pdf extension but i am not able to whitelist them.
Customers need to only allow some kinds of downloads.
Something like SRC 10.0.0.1 should only be allowed to download http://www.example.com/example.pdf is really complicated.

It would be great if i could just specify types of files to allow vs. having to block all the bad ones.

It would be nice to have a Web Manager interface that is similar to the Mail Manager. It basically would have the same functionality but would be based on individual URLs and sites visited instead of individual emails. It would include the ability to add an individual URL or domain to a global or policy specific blacklist or whitelist in the same way an individual quarantined email can be deleted, released and so on.

Management wants an easy way to add individual URLs and sites to blacklists and whitelists.

– like entertainment (200 MB), Educational (100MB) etc… usage assignment to users.

We need to differentiate the services that the Proxy can manage based on Proxy Profile.

Very sensitive customers need to log the complete HTTP transaction (the request and response with the HTML provided by web server during the transaction). Even if it's very I/O demanding, it's a key feature that is mandatory to have to chance to sell just WEB Security in government offices, banks and customers that manage classified information

Limit user connections to proxy with connection exceeded error reported to user. This would be very helpful in educational environments.

Add support to the web proxy for multistream downloads, if requested by the client software ie. Free Download Manager, Getright etc.

I would like to see the virus engine used as well as the pattern version displayed (or at least the option) when a virus is detected in a download.

Enhance the HTTP so when image content is blocked from a webpage, a scaled "content blocked" image is inserted/injected in it's place. Often web pages have click advertising which gets blocked in the catagories, and you will get just a small X where the blocked image is supposed to be. Some users think that the page has not loaded properly and reload the page. By having have a scaled "content blocked" imaged injected into the stream, it would clearly show the advertising imaged being blocked by the content filter.

The maximum length of time the user can stay authenticated when idle (not passing any traffic to
the external network).

i wish to have more configuration options in http/s cache settings.

for example cache all from microsoft updates for x days/weeks/years, cache every gif, jpg, png, css for x days/weeks/years

or do not cache php, asp, js.

Whenever a url is blocked by the url filter, have an email notification sent to appropriate admin users to advise who's trying to access blocked content.

Implement a Dropbox (https://www.dropbox.com/ and similar) filtering and scanning functionality for those that use this type of exchanging files.

i need a ftp proxy profile mode where i can set different profiles for different networks.

A big ISP in France asks to have a chance to authenticate users against the FTP proxy (exactly as we do for http proxy) against an external database such as AD.

customer said in this case that no matter if the proxy send to the credential in clear text between user's client and AxG.

Another idea from a customer:
Similar to the Mail Manager, there should be a "Web Manager" which is allowed to release items that were blocked by the HTTP proxy.

Example:
Someone downloads an passwort-protected zip file via proxy. After the download, it cannot be scanned because the file is protected, and is blocked. But the user needs that file. Now the admin would look at the blocked items and release it.

We need a way to specify more complex content filter rules since the addition of multiple categories.

Allow the content filter to have blacklisted and whitelisted categories at the same time, and allow them to decide which one "wins".

For instance, if a user wants to blacklist Games, but allow Educational, they could. They could also allow Shopping, but block Intimate Apparel. Currently if you select only 1 category, the site will be blocked even if you have whitelisted others it matches.

To visualize the cache efficiency it would be cool to display some cache stats as cache hit and cache miss percentage, WAN bandwidth savings etc.

This would be a really cool addition to the IMO good caching algorithm in V7.500
