Configure the Tor Exit Node Blocking Update Server
The Tor Exit Node Blocking service (Fireware v12.8.1 and higher and Fireware v12.5.10 and higher) uses a list of known Tor exit node IP addresses from Reputation Enabled Defense (RED). To make sure your Tor exit node IP address database is current, you must enable automatic updates.

Connect to the Update Server Through an HTTP-Proxy Server

Most HTTP-proxy servers accept requests on port 8080. You must only specify a different port if your server does not use port 8080. - From the Server Authentication drop-down list, select the type of authentication your HTTP-proxy server uses.
- If your HTTP-proxy does not require authentication, select No Auth.
