Proxy chaining

ESET Bridge supports proxy chaining—it can forward the traffic to a remote proxy.

All the supported proxy protocols also work with proxy chaining: HTTP, HTTPS, MQTT, TCP, etc.


important

The proxy chaining mode does not support caching. We will remove this limitation in the next ESET Bridge release.
