What’s New in These Releases

The ProxyClient 3.4.3.1 release introduced support for running ProxyClient on Mac computers. The following sections describe the differences between ProxyClient on Windows and Mac.

Install and Uninstall the Mac Client

ProxyClientSetup.bsx can be downloaded from the below URL

https://CM-IP:8084/proxyclient/ProxyClientSetup.bsx

Users with root or sudo privileges can install the Mac client with this

ProxyClientSetup.bsx file. Similar to the ProxyClientSetup.msi, the user can use this file with switches [the Client Manager URL is optional]. For example:

chmod +x ProxyClientSetup.bsx

sudo ./ProxyClientSetup.bsx BCSI_UPDATEURL=https://CM-IPADDRESS:8084

Note: Some browsers append

.sh

to the file name on downloading and some browsers append additional

.bsx

on downloading from the CM. Please rename the file to

ProxyClientSetup.bsx

and add execute permission to the file.

Uninstall the Mac client with the

UninstallProxyClient

executable created during installation. For example:

sudo /Applications/Blue\ Coat/Proxyclient/UninstallProxyClient

(4)

Stopping services and uninstallation can only be done by users that have root or sudo privileges.

If there is a software update, users with root or sudo privileges can update using

“Check For Updates” in the Web interface or by reinstalling ProxyClient using ProxyClientSetup.bsx on a computer that already has the Mac client installed.

Appearance

The tabs within the ProxyClient Web interface are slightly different on the Mac client:

General

tab: Shows only the Web filtering statistics.

Network

tab: Even if acceleration is enabled in the Client Manager, the Network tab is not displayed as acceleration is not supported in this release.

Advanced

tab: Displays the software details, Client Manager, and log information.

The Tray icon changes to a yellow exclamation icon for warnings and a red X icon for errors, but the number of cases that trigger the icons are limited to those related to Web filtering and services, but will not change status for acceleration related items.

When interacting with the tray icon, do not double-click. Clicking once on the icon and chose one of the following menu items:

Show status

: Displays the Web interface.

View log

: Displays the ProxyClient log file.

Help

: Displays the Help page.

ProxyClient on the Mac relies on Growl to display pop-up messages for critical events such as “Service unavailable”. If Growl is not installed, no messages are displayed.

Growl can be downloaded here:

www.growl.info

.

Web Filtering

HTTPS traffic is filtered only if the default port, 443, is used. For example, if a user visits the following Web site, the request will not be filtered:

https://www.example.com:444

If HTTPS traffic is set to "warn" or "block" the "warn/block" page is displayed in a separate browser window instead of the same window where the user started browsing.

If Growl is installed, HTTPS warn/ block messages are displayed as a Growl

notification instead of a new browser window.

Note: Blue Coat highly recommends users apply all the latest hot fixes available from Microsoft Windows Update.

Important: The ProxyClient should be installed on a New Technology File System (NTFS) partition only. Microsoft Windows XP enables users to install the operating system on a File Allocation Table (FAT), FAT32, or NTFS partition. Only NTFS should be used because NTFS security enhancements help prevent malicious users from disabling the ProxyClient service components.

In addition, only NTFS supports the Microsoft Encrypted File System (EFS), which is used to encrypt data in the cache. FAT partitions do not support EFS, meaning

documents in the CIFS cache can be accessed in the clear.

(7)

Web Browsers for ProxyClient Software Downloads

You can use any Web browser to download the ProxyClient to the user’s machine.

Web Browsers and Web Filtering

The following Web browsers are completely compatible with ProxyClient Web filtering, including HTTPS filtering:

Microsoft Internet Explorer version 6 and later, including version 9 Mozilla Firefox version 2 and later, including version 3.x

Some Web browsers have the following limitations:

HTTPS traffic is filtered only if the default port, 443, is used. For example, if a user visits the following Web site using the Opera Web browser, the request will not be filtered:

https://www.example.com:444

(B#98568)

The browser displays an error page instead of a block or warn page. (B#97729) If HTTPS traffic is set to "warn" or "block" the "warn/block" page is displayed in a separate browser window instead of the same window where the user started browsing.

SSLv2 Is Not Supported

The SSLv2 protocol cannot be used to communicate between the ProxyClient computer and the Client Manager. Set the client’s Web browser for either SSL 3.0 or TLS 1.0. For more information, see "No SSLv2 Support for Client Manager Communication" on page 7.

General Notes

This section discusses general topics that are not necessarily issues with the ProxyClient.

SG Client Is Not Compatible

ProxyClient is not compatible with SGOS before 6.1.

No SSLv2 Support for Client Manager Communication

The port the ProxyClient uses to communicate with the Client Manager (8084 by default) does not support SSLv2 traffic. If a ProxyClient computer’s default Web browser is set to support only SSLv2 traffic, the computer will not be able to communicate with the Client Manager. (B#108785)

To verify or change the Client Manager communication port, log in to the Client

Manager’s Management Console as an administrator and click

Configuration

>

ProxyClient

>

General

>

Client Manager

. The value in the

Port

field is the Client Manager communication port.

The following procedures discuss how to verify these settings in Internet Explorer 8 and

Firefox 3.5. To verify the settings in another browser or in another browser version,

consult the documentation provided with the browser.

Blue Coat Director and Reporter

This release is compatible only with SGME 5.x

Limitation: Director can be used to upload a new version of the ProxyClient software using an external URL only; to upload ProxyClient software from the local file system, you must log in to the Client Manager’s Management Console directly.

Blue Coat Reporter:

• Reporter version 8.x: Blue Coat Reporter versions 8.3.6 and later can be used to analyze Web filtering logs uploaded by ProxyClients.

A known issue in Blue Coat Reporter versions earlier than 8.3.6 prevents it from analyzing the Web filtering logs uploaded by ProxyClients. (B#102893, 104187)

• Reporter version 9.x: To analyze ProxyClient log data, you must use Reporter

9.1.2.x or later.

Note: The Blue Coat Remote Access (ProxyRA) client versions 2.2.4 and 2.3.1 were tested with the ProxyClient and found to be compatible; however, when ProxyRA is used, the ProxyClient does not provide acceleration.

Web filtering is affected as follows:

• Web filtering to unprotected resources are unaffected.

• Web filtering to protected resources might be bypassed by Web filtering because ProxyRA encrypts data to these destinations.

A protected resource is a Web site or network destination that is proxied by the

ProxyRA Connector.

Third-Party Firewall Products

The ProxyClient should work with all third-party firewall products without making any exceptions, provided you require clients to connect to the Client Manager using VPN. In some cases, especially if you choose to deploy ProxySGs outside your corporate firewall and you do not require VPN (a deployment that is not recommended), you might need to make the exceptions discussed in "Recommended Implementation Information" on page 12.

Consult the documentation provided with your firewall product for specific information.

Layered Service Providers (LSPs)

Because the ProxyClient relies on Microsoft’s advanced WinSock functions, any third- party software that installs using an LSP might interfere with these WinSock functions. In the event of connectivity issues, perform the tasks discussed in this section to determine whether or not the issues are related to LSP software.

To determine if you’re using LSP and to work around connectivity issues:

1. Use an LSP query or enumeration application to determine if you have third-party LSP applications installed.

By default, the ProxyClient bypasses the following LSP

dll

s:

WARNING! Do not remove any LSP

dll

s with the LSP application because doing so can cause unpredictable performance, including disrupting network communications.

Use the LSP application only to identify running LSP

dll

s.

(12)

imon.dll

(used by ESET NOD32)

bmnet.dll

(used by the Cingular Bytemobile)

vlsp.dll

(used by Verizon)

winsflt.dll

(used by PureSight Parental Control and Computer Associates Internet Security Suite Plus 2008)

2. If you are running an LSP, you have the following options to work around the issue:

• Use the configuration or management tool provided by the LSP vendor tool to either disable the LSP or exclude the ProxyClient application

(

ProxyClientSvc.exe

) from LSP intervention.

• If it’s not possible to disable LSP or exclude the ProxyClient application from LSP intervention, contact Blue Coat Support as discussed in Section E: "Support"

on page 34.

(B#81340)

Recommended Implementation Information

Because ProxySG appliances do not currently provide access control policy for

connections made to ADN concentrators, Blue Coat recommends that access to servers fronted by concentrators be limited to VPN-authenticated clients. If your VPN

concentrators or client firewall software require exceptions to be made for IP addresses or ports so ProxyClients can communicate with the ADN network, use the guidelines discussed in this section.

For ProxyClient users to be able to get software and configuration updates from the Client Manager and for network traffic to be accelerated, you might need to configure exceptions in client firewall software and configure your firewall to make the exceptions discussed in the following list:

Client Manager:

• Listen port (by default, 8084); set on the Client Manager in

Configuration

>

ProxyClient

Upgrade and Downgrade Information

This section discusses the following topics:

"ProxyClient Compatibility With SGOS" on page 13

"Upgrade/Downgrade Considerations" on page 15

"Upgrading the ProxyClient Software" on page 16

"ProxyClient Licensing" on page 20

ProxyClient Compatibility With SGOS

This section discusses the following topics:

"Recommended Upgrade Information" on page 13

"ProxyClient and SGOS Compatibility" on page 13

"Important Information about Web Filtering Support" on page 14

Recommended Upgrade Information

Before you deploy the ProxyClient, make sure the ADN manager, backup manager (if any), concentrators and the Client Manager isin your ADN network are running compatible versions of SGOS. In general, use the following guidelines:

Make sure the ADN manager, ADN backup manager (if any), concentrators, and Client Manager are running the most recent version of SGOS.

If you need to upgrade ProxySG appliances, do so in the following order:

a. ADN Manager and ADN backup manager, if any b. Concentrators

c. Client Manager

ProxyClient software on client computers

ProxyClient and SGOS Compatibility

This version of ProxyClient is compatible with Client Manager version 6.2 and later.

Note: You can configure the ADN network to use the same port for plain manager and plain tunnel and the same port for secure manager and secure tunnel. You set these options as follows:

Configuration

>

ADN

>

General

>

General

, Manager Ports section

Configuration

>

ADN

>

Tunneling

>

Connection

, Inbound section

(14)

The following table summarizes SGOS compatibility with the ProxyClient (version 3.1.x, 3.2.x, 3.3.x, and 3.4.x):

To use the ProxyClient version 3.2.x or later in your ADN network, Blue Coat strongly recommends your Client Manager and ADN Manager (and backup manager, if any) run SGOS version 5.5.x or later. In addition, Blue Coat recommends all concentrators that provide ADN tunnels for ProxyClients be upgraded to SGOS version 5.5.x or later.

SGOS 5.4.x or later ADN managers, backup managers, and concentrators enable you to use either open, managed ADN or closed ADN with the ProxyClient. Open ADN and closed ADN are backward compatible with SGOS versions 5.1.4 and later (in other words, SGOS versions that support secure ADN).

Important Information about Web Filtering Support

Because of recent changes made to Blue Coat WebFilter categories, not all combinations of Client Manager and ProxyClient are compatible. The following table discusses compatible and incompatible versions.

Issues result when all of the following are true:

A ProxyClient user requests a URL that matches a category that changed. (Ten new categories were added and five existing categories were renamed.)

For example, the Arts/Entertainment category is now split into the Arts/Culture and Entertainment categories.

6.1.x CM 6.1.x ADN Mgr 6.1.x Conc

5.3—5.5 CM 5.3—5.5 ADN Mgr 5.3—5.5 Conc

You configured a policy action for one of the categories that changed.

When a client requests a URL that is categorized as Arts/Culture, for example, but you set a policy action for Arts/Entertainment, the URL is classified as Unknown and the policy action is applied (allow, block, or warn).

The resulting Unknown categorization has a policy action that is different from the policy action for the policy you configured.

To complete the example, suppose you blocked Arts/Entertainment but you allowed Unknown. In that case, the URL request is allowed when you intended for it to be blocked.

KB2966 KB1567

Upgrade/Downgrade Considerations

This section discusses the following information related to upgrading and downgrading the ProxyClient software:

"Upgrade Guidelines" on page 15

"Downgrade Consideration" on page 15

Upgrade Guidelines

Blue Coat recommends as a best practice you upgrade the Client Manager to SGOS 6.1 or later and upgrade ProxyClients to 3.4. Doing so guarantees the ProxyClients use all the latest features and improvements.

If you upgrade from one ProxyClient version to another ProxyClient version you should not have issues, regardless of the Client Manager version. However, ProxyClient features are limited to the features supported by the Client Manager.

For example, if your Client Manager runs SGOS 6.1 and you upgrade your ProxyClients to version 3.4, your ProxyClients will not have uninstallation protection, Web filtering improvements, and so on. However, the configuration is encrypted.

For a list of new features in this release, see "Contents of These Release Notes" on page 2.

Downgrade Consideration

ProxyClient can be downgraded from 3.4 to 3.3, however downgrades from ProxyClient 3.2 or later to 3.1 or earlier fail because a password is required to uninstall the ProxyClient software. In other words, the following methods cannot be used to downgrade the ProxyClient from 3.2 to 3.1 or earlier versions:

Note: Although it is possible to downgrade ProxyClient on a Windows Vista computer to a version that is not supported, this causes the ProxyClient service to stop working and therefore the next software update (this time going forward) cannot be loaded.

Workaround: Uninstall ProxyClient and reinstall it once a supported upgrade version is on the machine.

(B#83488)

(16)

Running the command line installer,

ProxyClientSetup.msi

, to install an earlier version on a machine running version 3.2 or later.

Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM)—previously referred to as Systems Management Server (SMS)—or Group Policy Object (GPO)

Automatic downgrades from the Client Manager

The only way to downgrade the ProxyClient software from 3.2 or later to 3.1 or earlier versions is to first uninstall the current version and then install the desired older version.

Upgrading the ProxyClient Software

You have the following options to upgrade the ProxyClient software on the Client Manager and on client computers:

Upload the ProxyClient software to the Client Manager and let clients get the software from the Client Manager as discussed in this section.

Upgrading the Client Manager to the most recent version of SGOS does not replace the ProxyClient software on the Client Manager.

Manually run

ProxyClientSetup.msi

on client computers.

The other installer, named

ProxyClientSetup.exe

, should be used only to download the ProxyClient software from the Client Manager. For more information about manually installing the software, see Chapter 9, Distributing the ProxyClient Software, in the ProxyClient Administration and Deployment Guide.

Automated updates using SCCM, SMS, or GPO.

For more information about this option, see Chapter 9, Distributing the ProxyClient Software, in the ProxyClient Administration and Deployment Guide.

To upgrade the software, see the following sections in the order shown:

1. "Getting the ProxyClient Software" on page 17 2. "Running the Windows.msi" on page 18

3. "Uploading the ProxyClient .car File to the Client Manager" on page 18

Note: If the ProxyClient software was installed on the client machine with the option to prohibit software updates, you must update the ProxyClient software on client computers using one of the following methods:

• Manually running

ProxyClientSetup.msi

on client computers.

• Automatically using SCCM, SMS, or GPO.

Note: Automatic downgrades from the ProxyClient version 3.x to the SG Client version 2.x are not supported. In other words, do not upload the version 2.x SG Client .car file to the Client Manager and allow clients to download it automatically.

Instead, you must uninstall ProxyClient and then install the SG Client; the installation can

be from the Client Manager, from the command line, and so on. (B#105102)

ProxyClient Licensing

Your SGOS trial or permanent license enables you to designate a ProxySG appliance as the Client Manager and it enables unlimited ProxyClient connections, provided the SGOS base license is valid. However, you must size your ProxyClient deployment based on Client Manager scalability.

User or client licenses for the ProxyClient software are not required.

For more information on SGOS licensing, refer to the SGOS Administration Guide.

Important:

• ProxyClient Web filtering can be used only with the SGOS Proxy Edition. Web filtering cannot be used with the SGOS Mach5 Edition.

• ProxyClient Web Filtering licensing requires a valid Blue Coat Web Filter (BCWF) database installed on the Client Manager and a user name and password to use to update the BCWF database categories at least once every 30 days. The BCWF license is available with trial and permanent licenses.

Even if the Client Manager is being used as a forward proxy, you must download

the BCWF database on the Client Manager for licensing purposes.

ProxyClient System Requirements

The following table summarizes ProxyClient system requirements::

Support for Other Products

This section discusses the following topics:

"Blue Coat Reporter" on page 21

"Third-Party Firewall Products" on page 21

Blue Coat Reporter

• Reporter version 8.x: Blue Coat Reporter versions 8.3.6 and later can be used to analyze Web filtering logs uploaded by ProxyClients.

A known issue in Blue Coat Reporter versions earlier than 8.3.6 prevents it from analyzing the Web filtering logs uploaded by ProxyClients. (B#102893, 104187)

• Reporter version 9.x: To analyze ProxyClient log data, you must use Reporter 9.1.2.x or later.

Third-Party Firewall Products

The ProxyClient should work with all third-party firewall products without making any exceptions, provided you require clients to connect to the Client Manager using VPN. In some cases, especially if you choose to deploy ProxySGs outside your corporate firewall and you do not require VPN (a deployment that is not recommended), you might need to make the exceptions discussed in "Recommended Implementation Information" on page 22.

Consult the documentation provided with your firewall product for specific information.

Mac OS X

Recommended Implementation Information

For ProxyClient users to be able to get configuration updates from the Client Manager, you might need to configure exceptions in client firewall software and configure your firewall to make the exceptions discussed in the following list:

Client Manager:

• Listen port (by default, 8084); set on the Client Manager in

• Client Manager IP address

Upgrade and Downgrade Information

This section discusses the following topics:

"ProxyClient Compatibility With SGOS" on page 22

"Upgrading the ProxyClient Software" on page 23

"ProxyClient Licensing" on page 27

ProxyClient Compatibility With SGOS

This section discusses the following topics:

"Recommended Upgrade Information" on page 22

"ProxyClient and SGOS Compatibility" on page 22

"Important Information about Web Filtering Support" on page 22

Recommended Upgrade Information

Before you deploy the ProxyClient, make sure the Client Manager is running compatible versions of SGOS.

ProxyClient and SGOS Compatibility

To host the Mac version of the ProxyClient software and to enable auto updates, the Client Manager version should be 6.2.3.1 or later.

Important Information about Web Filtering Support

Because of recent changes made to Blue Coat WebFilter categories, not all combinations of Client Manager and ProxyClient are compatible. The following table discusses compatible and incompatible versions.

Issues result when all of the following are true:

A ProxyClient user requests a URL that matches a category that changed. (Ten new categories were added and five existing categories were renamed.)

For example, the Arts/Entertainment category is now split into the Arts/Culture and Entertainment categories.

SGOS 5.3.1.x SGOS 5.3.2.x SGOS 6.1 and later ProxyClient 3.4.x Not

compatible

Not compatible

Compatible

(23)

You configured a policy action for one of the categories that changed.

When a client requests a URL that is categorized as Arts/Culture, for example, but you set a policy action for Arts/Entertainment, the URL is classified as Unknown and the policy action is applied (allow, block, or warn).

The resulting Unknown categorization has a policy action that is different from the policy action for the policy you configured.

To complete the example, suppose you blocked Arts/Entertainment but you allowed Unknown. In that case, the URL request is allowed when you intended for it to be blocked.

For more information, see one of the following Blue Coat Knowledge Base articles:

KB2966 KB1567

Upgrading the ProxyClient Software

You have the following options to upgrade the ProxyClient software on the Client Manager and on client computers:

Upload the ProxyClient software to the Client Manager and let clients get the software from the Client Manager as discussed in this section.

Note:

• Upgrading the Client Manager to the most recent version of SGOS does not replace the ProxyClient software on the Client Manager.

• AutoUpdate from Client Manager is not supported in 3.4.1.1. To upgrade

ProxyClient software from 3.4.1.1 to 3.4.3.1, first uninstall 3.4.1.1 and then install 3.4.3.1.

When upgrading ProxyClient from the 3.4.2.0 beta release to the 3.4.3.x release on Mac OS X, at the end of the upgrade process a message is displayed saying the upgrade process failed. This is a false message, and the upgrade completes successfully. (B#169619)

Manually run

ProxyClientSetup.bsx

on client computers.

Automated updates using Apple Remote Desktop.

For more information about this option, see Chapter 6, Distributing the ProxyClient Software, in the ProxyClient Administration and Deployment Guide.

Note: If the ProxyClient software was installed on the client machine with the option to prohibit software updates, you must update the ProxyClient software on client computers using one of the following methods:
