WSA SOCK proxy enable

[pritesh-suthar]

Hi Team,

we had configured http proxy in WSA , however need to enable SOCKS Proxy in Cisco IronPor
we need to know what are the impact if we enable the socks proxy.

Any feature enable or disable or make changes on the Proxy. the proxy service will restart, your services will be interrupted for brief of 5-15 seconds depends on the resources available. so if this critical environment then do this changes in maintenance window (if you have multiple proxy in LB, then take off 1 proxy at a time from LB and re-add them back when the configuration changed)
