Marcus/All,


1 - Secure Computing Sidewinder firewall has a transparent option.  It also can
be configured for nt-proxies as well.

2 - With a trusted host configuration ANS Interlock firewalls can function as a
transparent proxy

3 - Firewall-1 [while not truely a proxy......] can also function as a
transparent 'statefull inspection engine'.

Don't most vendors have this ability now?

Subject:  proxy transparency




I'm trying to build a list of firewalls that support
proxy transparency (auto-invocation of a proxy based on
examining traffic at the routing layer and then having
the proxy complete the call based on pulling that information
from the kernel)   Right now my list looks like: Gauntlet,
and Milky Way. Does anyone else do this?
