The SPS is not a traditional reverse proxy solution, because it does not provide resource caching. The SPS does serve, however, as a single gateway for access to enterprise resources, regardless of the method of network access.
A set of configurable proxy rules determines how the SPS handles a user request. Users can access resources through multiple session schemes based on mapping between user agent types and virtual hosts. Requests can be routed to different destination servers based on the type of device being used to access the network.
The following illustration shows a configuration of the SPS. Users access the SPS using various devices. The SPS determines the session scheme to create based on the access device, and then forwards or redirects requests to the appropriate destination servers. Users are not aware that there is a reverse proxy server in the enterprise.
