Microsoft Proxy Server is a network security component that allows only valid users to access the Internet from a secured LAN. It supports all Internet protocols, including streaming audio and video and Internet Relay Chat (IRC). Proxy Server also caches commonly used pages on the local server to reduce access time and external network traffic. This lesson explains how Proxy Server works, and lists the benefits of using it.

Proxy Server is installed on top of IIS and extends IIS by allowing clients on a LAN to access the Internet while maintaining security. Proxy Server provides this security by using IP address aggregation , which uses one IP address to retrieve information from the Internet.
