Disabling SOCKS on the SOHO 6
Once you use a SOCKS-compliant application through the
SOHO 6, the primary SOCKS port is available to anyone on your
trusted network. You can close this security gap between uses of
SOCKS applications.
1 Enable the checkbox labeled Disable SOCKS proxy.
This disables the SOHO 6 from acting as a SOCKS proxy.
2 Click Submit.
When you need to use SOCKS again, follow this procedure:
1 Disable the checkbox labeled Disable SOCKS proxy.
This enables the SOHO 6 to act as a SOCKS proxy.
2 Click Submit.
The SOHO 6 is enabled again as a Proxy server and ready to pass SOCKS
packets.
Logging all allowed outbound traffic
By default, the SOHO 6 logs only particular events and not all
traffic passing through it. For the most part, the SOHO 6 records
denied traffic. However, the SOHO 6 is able to record all allowed
outbound traffic.
N OTE
This option will record an extensive amount of log entries. For this
reason, WatchGuard recommends that you use it for diagnostic purposes
only.
