Many customers either have an explicit proxy server at the data center or incorporate the transparent upstream proxy in their current infrastructure. This command enables the Riverbed web proxy feature to inter-operate explicitly with an upstream web proxy. In this deployment, clients are aware that requests go through a proxy. Web proxy redirects connections to the parent proxy.

A web proxy parent proxy deployment can be either automatic or manual but not both.
