LAST UPDATE: MARCH, 10. 1997 | C H A P T E R 5.97 - GLOSSARY - PROXY |
Explanation:
A proxy server is a computer that
works like a cahce. If a web page is requested for the first time, then it is stored on the proxy server. The next
user that requests the same page is served directly from the proxy server instead of the remote server. This speeds up
the transmission and reduced net-traffic.
