Title: Urgent configuration to hit external proxy across networks
Post by: gumbicus on Tuesday 28 January 2014, 03:29:20 pm
Hello everybody,

Classes are starting next week so any help asap would be greatly appreciated.
I am working at an educational institution and have been asked to strip down an extremely complex network system and bring it back to basics for the student development labs.
A requirement is that these labs are internal and don't affect the non-development student labs.
The problem is, the campus is a joint campus between 3 educational institutions. And i need to hit the proxy provided by my institution, but i have to go through another to do it.
So lets say the Proxy IP is 120.26.88.20:8000
I have been informed this is the only way through for internet access, and the proxy server is legally required because we educate underage students.

Here is the network setup:

#### Proxy Server 120.26.88.20:8000 ####
                                ^
#### External network gateway, no DHCP: 10.56.50.1 known as the *50 net* ####
                                ^
#### External network switch ???IP ADDRESS??? - known as the *52 net* netmask ???.???.???.252 ####
                                ^
#### EFW Red network address 10.56.52.13 ####
                                ^
#### Internal network switch 192.168.51.240 ####
                                ^
#### EFW Green network address, as gateway and DHCP server for network - 192.168.51.241 ####
                                ^
#### Green network workstation 192.168.51.x ####
