You can now more easily manage the traffic flowing through or bypassing Explicit Proxy by using Forwarding Profiles instead of only a single PAC file. Forwarding Profiles enable you to define forwarding rules and objects from a simple, easy to use interface rather than dealing with the complexity of a PAC file.

If you already employ a PAC file, you can seamlessly transition to Forwarding Profiles by importing the PAC file into a profile. Furthermore, if you have had to manage multiple PAC files for different kinds of traffic, you can now import these PAC files into profiles to use them simultaneously.

In addition to using Forwarding Profiles with a standard proxy, you can also use them to simplify how you define the flow of traffic through GlobalProtect in Proxy or Tunnel and Proxy mode.
