ESET Bridge Policy
You can configure ESET Bridge only remotely from ESET PROTECT using an ESET Bridge Policy:
If there is an existing ESET Bridge Policy in place, you can: •Request the applied ESET Bridge configuration to see the current ESET Bridge configuration. •Edit the existing ESET Bridge Policy instead of creating a new one. |
1.Open the ESET PROTECT Web Console in your web browser and log in.
2.Click Policies > New Policy.
3.In Basic, type the Name. You can also type the Description and Select tags.
4.Click Settings and select ESET Bridge from the Select product drop-down menu.
5.Configure ESET Bridge Policy settings:
•Port—By default, ESET Bridge uses port 3128. You can set a custom port.
•Authentication—By default, there is no proxy server authentication. Enable the toggle and type the Username and Password to enable the authentication.
•Trace log verbosity—Select the trace log verbosity level from the drop-down menu: 0 (turn the logging off), Debug, Information (default), Warning, Error, Fatal. •Allowed server addresses—ESET Bridge has a default deny policy for the requests passing through, and only ESET hosts are allowed by default. To allow additional server addresses (hostnames), type domain names, fully qualified domain names, or IP addresses (separate addresses by a comma). •Allowed server ports—By default, ESET Bridge only allows ports used by the ESET servers. To allow additional ports (for example, a custom ESET PROTECT port), type port numbers (separate ports by a comma).

•Maximum cache size (MB)—The default and recommended value is 5000. If the cache size exceeds the set maximum cache size, the oldest cached data will be removed.
•Minimum free space (MB)—The default value is 1000. If the free space goes under the set minimum space, the least recently used cached data will be removed.
•Cache HTTPS traffic—Enable the toggle to enable HTTPS traffic caching.
•HTTPS Certificate—Add or change a peer certificate required for HTTPS traffic caching.
•Enable custom cache directory—Enable the toggle and type the Custom cache directory to store cache files in a custom directory. By default, ESET Bridge stores the cache files in the eset_cache directory: oWindows: C:\ProgramData\ESET\Bridge\Proxies\Nginx\data\eset_cache oLinux: /var/opt/eset/bridge/nginx/data/eset_cache
|
•Keepalive timeout—Set a timeout during which a keepalive client connection will stay open on the proxy side (in seconds; the default value is 60). The zero value disables keepalive client connections. •Send timeout—Set a timeout for transmitting a response to the client (in seconds; the default value is 60). The timeout is set only between two successive write operations, not for the transmission of the whole response. If the client does not receive anything within this time, the connection is closed. •Connect timeout—Set a timeout for establishing a connection with a proxied server (in seconds; the default value is 60). •Read timeout—Set a timeout for reading a response from the proxied server (in seconds; the default value is 60). The timeout is set only between two successive read operations, not for the transmission of the whole response. If the proxied server does not transmit anything within this time, the connection is closed. |
•Use proxy server—Enable the toggle to connect ESET Bridge via a proxy server (the proxy chaining feature). •Proxy server—Specify the remote proxy server hostname or IP address. •Port—Specify the remote proxy port. |
