Question:

• Some sites or programs require you to bypass Authentication in order for it to be accessed through the SWG appliance. For example, Google Earth’s update mechanism will not allow the program to run if it cannot contact its host site, and the host site cannot be reached when using Authentication through the SWG.

Procedure:

• To bypass authentication in our Google Earth example, we will use the User-Agent header that Google Earth uses to access its host site.
