I have no idea, you asked for transparent proxy so I assume you know what a transparent proxy is?

see...in the document its written that by using transparent proxy we do not need to setup  the proxy setting in the browsers (which i was doing at the time of web filtering) but i dont think so any changes comes in play still i have to do that .
