A traditional proxy server is located between a firewall and an internal network and provides caching of resources and security for the users on the internal network. Traditional proxy servers act as a proxy on behalf of a group of users for all resources on the Internet.
The following illustration shows a proxy server configuration. The proxy server caches frequently accessed resources so that requests for those resources are handled faster in the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ).
