Upload Custom PAC Files to Umbrella
To bypass additional internal domains on the secure web gateway (SWG), you can create custom PAC files and upload them to Umbrella. Once uploaded to Umbrella, your PAC files are available on Umbrella for you to use in your environment.
Umbrella supports IP-based domains. However, you must enter the IP in the browser’s address bar as the domain portion of the URL. For example, https://1.2.3.4/URLpath/
. The PAC file does not resolve a domain to IP before matching an IP-based domain for bypass.
