Welcome to Aspera Proxy Server; Aspera's open and authenticated proxy solution built on top of the Linux kernel. Aspera Proxy Server addresses the following customer use cases:
Case 1: Perimeter
Your enterprise has security requirements that prevent you from deploying the Aspera Enterprise Server (or Connect Server) in your DMZ.
Case 2: Proxy
Your enterprise security environment limits general Internet access, including the fasp protocol. Employees cannot access Aspera servers from their desktops and your IT department would like to implement an authentication requirement for Aspera clients initiating connections to the outside. Or, if you use the Connect browser plug-in within your network, you do not have visibility or control over fasp transfers into and out of the network.
The Aspera Proxy Server addresses each use case described above, and can be configured for operation based on the instructions contained in this manual.
