Hi all,

 

We are looking to configure Explicit Proxy and would therefore initially need to change the Inspection Mode from Flow-based to Web.  Apart from gaining the ability of deeper inspection, is there any other implication in a Production environment traffic.  Would there be any form of outage during changeover.  Is there much additional overhead on the Fortigate devices ?

    Hello,

     

    Explicit proxy policy is always in proxy inspection mode and it is not possible to change explicit proxy policy inspection mode to flow manually.
