Proxy Server is an application that provides caching and access control for HTTP-based services. With caching, you can reserve caching storage space on your Synology NAS to store web content. Once a user makes an HTTP request, Proxy Server will retrieve cached content from your Synology NAS, effectively speeding up services and saving time. You can also use Proxy Server to deny users from accessing restricted web services, keeping your network safe and productive.
For HTTPS requests, files will not be cached but access rules will still be enforced.
You can back up Proxy Server and restore it to a previous version via Backup & Replication.
Note:
The backup and restore functions support all versions of Proxy Server with DSM 5.0 (or later).
