Large corporate networks use proxy server to serve as an intermediary between its real server and a Web browser. The proxy server intercepts requests to see if it can answer the questions itself. If not, it forwards the requests to the real server. It prevents traffic from occurring especially if a lot of users are accessing the same Web site. Its main purpose is to improve performance for group of users who access the same Web page and also filter requests for Web site that should not be accessed.
