Hi Andy (et al.),

A quick question.

What are the options offered by xrootd for deployment or configuration when all data servers are behind a firewall which blocks all direct access by clients on an external network?

Section 4.2 of the configuration documentation<https://xrootd.slac.stanford.edu/doc/dev55/xrd_config.htm#_Toc88513970> seems to suggest a proxy server would be necessary in this case.  Is that correct?

If so, what exactly does this proxy server do, and how is it set up?

Thanks,

Al
