SWG Configuration

SWG Configuration

You can enable the secure web gateway (SWG) feature. When you enable the SWG feature, you can have end users configure their client software, such as a browser, to proxy all of its traffic through FortiSASE. You must manually send the SWG server information to end users. End users then configure their browser to send requests directly to the SWG.

To enable the SWG feature:
  1. Go to System > SWG Configuration.
  2. Toggle Enable to on. Click OK. The GUI may take a few minutes to reload. Once the GUI finishes loading, you can view the Hosted PAC File URL, which users use to configure the SWG server on their endpoints. You can also view the default SWG policies and create custom ones in Configuration > SWG Policies. See SWG Policies.
