Downloading the preconfigured PAC file

Downloading the preconfigured PAC file

The System > SWG Configuration page displays the secure web gateway (SWG) servers, port, and hosted proxy autoconfiguration (PAC) file. You can download the predefined PAC file to customize.

By default, the FortiSASE hosted PAC file contains the global (recommended) URL and the SWG port specific to your instance. This global (recommended) URL automatically directs users to the closest geographical location for all browsers and proxy-aware applications. For example:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {  
    return "PROXY turbo-hqwdvq17.edge.prod.fortisase.com:10925; DIRECT"; 
}

This simple PAC file specifies that the web request should be sent through the proxy server turbo-hqwdvq17.edge.prod.fortisase.com on TCP port 10925 and if the proxy does not respond to this request, the browser sends the web request directly to the internet without using the proxy.
