Configure PAC File for
Exclusions
-
Click 'Configuration' > 'Configuration' > 'PAC File' to download the PAC file.
A proxy auto-config (PAC) file determines which proxy servers a browser or client should use to access a given URL.
- Your Comodo SWG node domain URL is automatically configured in the PAC file so it acts as the proxy server.
- If you add your own sub-domain as explained in the 'Configure Domain Name' section, then this will be configured in the PAC file. This automatically resolves to the SWG node IP address.
- You can configure exclusions (domains, IPs and networks) that can be reached directly without using the Comodo SWG proxy server. You can define different exclusions for each location and roaming agent.
- You have the option to bypass the proxy if the connection to SWG is lost, so users can access the internet directly.
- Click 'Administration' > 'How to Configure' > 'Set as Proxy' > 'PAC' to find the URL of the PAC file.
