content engine module

Hi, is it possible for a content engine module to work in a 2600 with the following scenario? I want the clients gateway to be the 2600 with content engine installed but I want the 2600 to forward all traffic out a seperate gateway. I know a content switch can do this but can a content module in a 2600 do it too. The reason for wanting this is I want to use url filtering software such as websense and at the moment the existing gateway/firewall is not compatible with websense so Im looking to use a 2600 with content module installed to filter webtraffic and forward out the existing gateway. Thanks

this is no problem

Just look at the nm-ce as a standalone device connected by ethernet to the 2600.

The 2600 can be the default gateway for the client and the cache [nm-ce].

The 2600 will intercept traffic from client and forward to nm-ce.

The nm-ce will use the 2600 as its default gateway.

Thanks Gilles but on your last point, can the nm-ce use a different gateway other than the 2600 as it's default gateway? ie can the 2600/nm-ce be a proxy for url filtering etc. for all traffic but destined for a different gateway. So you would have PC -> 2600 -> nm-ce -> other gateway
