Cisco Router That Supports HTTP Proxy?

Hi,

    I'm currently using an RV 320 Small Business router.  I am implementing Symantec Web Security and wanted to configure the router to use an HTTP proxy for all web traffic on my local network.  This would avoid having to configure each machine individually.  My goal is to send all the web traffic through the Symantec web security; there will be a single global web filter rule for all users.   However, it seems that the RV320 does not have the ability to configure an HTTP proxy unless I'm missing something.

Can anyone recommend a similar style switch that has this capability?  I don't need a ton of features and would like it to have a GUI.  Mainly, I a router that can act as my main firewall.  Plus it needs to support four separate VLANs and have this HTTP proxy ability.  Other than that; I don't need any special features.

Thanks

- Adam

The Symantec provided instructions for configuring a Cisco router are this:


1 Select Caching > HTTP Proxy.

2 Set Enable Incoming HTTP Proxy to On and enter the port(s) that browsers in your organization will use to connect to it in the box labeled Incoming HTTP Proxy Port List.

3 Enable the Outgoing HTTP Proxy and enter proxy.webs.com on port 3128. Click Update.

4 Enable the HTTPS Proxy and enter proxy.webs.com on port 3128. Click Update.

5 Enable the FTP Proxy and enter proxy.webs.com on port 3128. Click Update. The Content Engine configuration is complete.

6 Configure your browser to use the Content Engine as the proxy then test correct operation.

7 Use Reporting > Performance to confirm that requests travel through the Content Engine.

Unless Symantec supports WCCP you will need to configure each machine and device individually.
