Yes, but it would be better link this: ISP | | | Firewall-------------------DMZ--------------Proxy Server | | LAN Switch | PC1 PC2 PC3 PC4 PC5 PC6The reasoning behind this is that any system on your internal LAN could attempt to take over the IP of the proxy and gain access to the Internet for itself. If you put the proxy in a DMZ then it is further protected from this kind of attack.
