Lab 3.3: Testing the Explicit Proxy deployment¶

To test the deployed solution, RDP to the Outbound Win7 Client and do the following:

Hint

Username = student / Password = agility

Configure the client browser to use 10.20.0.150:3128 for explicit proxy access.
- This setting for Chrome can be find in Settings ‣ Advanced ‣ Open proxy settings.
SSH to BIG-IP CLI and run the following tcpdump command to view the browser traffic hitting the explicit proxy IP.
```
tcpdump -nni client-net port 3128
```
Test by browsing to url of choice. You should see the traffic stream across tcpdump from previous command.
An explicit proxy request test can also be done using command-line cURL:
```
curl -vk –proxy 10.20.0.150:3128 https://www.example.com
```
Again watch the tcpdump from the previous test to confirm explicit proxy use.
