Configuring the outgoing SMTP proxy

Use the Outgoing SMTP Proxy dialog box to set the parameters for traffic going from
your Trusted and Optional network to the world. You must already have an SMTP
Proxy service icon in the Services Arena. Double-click the icon to open the service’s
Properties dialog box:

1

Click the Properties tab.

2

Click Outgoing.

The Outgoing SMTP Proxy dialog box appears, displaying the General tab.

3

To add a new header pattern, type the pattern name in the text box to the left of
the Add button. Click Add.

4

To remove a header from the pattern list, click the header pattern. Click Remove.

5

Set a time-out value in seconds.

6

To modify logging properties, click the Logging tab.

Add masquerading options

SMTP masquerading converts an address pattern behind the firewall into an
anonymized public address. For example, the internal address pattern might be
inside.salesdept.bigcompany.com, which would be anonymized to their public
address bigcompany.com.

1

Click the Masquerading tab.

2

Enter the official domain name.

This is the name you want visible to the outside world.

3

In the Substitute text box, type the address patterns that are behind your firewall
that you want replaced by the official domain name.

All patterns entered here appear as the official domain name outside the Firebox.

4

In the Don’t Substitute text box, type the address patterns that you want to
appear “as is” outside the firewall.

5

Enable other masquerading properties according to your security policy
preferences.

Configuring an FTP proxy service

To enable the FTP proxy, add the FTP icon to the Services Arena. From the Policy
Manager Services Arena:

1

Double-click the FTP Proxy service icon to open the FTP Proxy Properties dialog
box.

2

Click the Properties tab.

3

Click Settings.

4

Enable FTP proxy properties according to your security policy preferences.

For a description of each control, right-click it, and then click What’s This?

Outgoing FTP does not work without an FTP icon in the Services Arena to

trigger the FTP proxy.
