McAfee Web Gateway & CSR queries

[Asogan]

Hi Experts,

I need an advice on the following requirement:-

1. Can McAfee WG host more than 1 PAC file?, Different PAC files for different group of users?
2. Logs to store in local WG in branches, to push to McAfee CSR (hosted in HQ) during non-peak hours?
3. For the below ePO and CSR spec, will this be sufficient to cater for 3 branches with HQ WG logs?

ePO & CSR & DB Hardware Configuration:                                  

Processor: 2.30 GHz (4 Core)

Memory (RAM): 16 GB

Minimum disk space: 300 GB

Microsoft Windows Server 2016

1. The File server doesn't have limitation how many files you host. I can imagine its possible to achieve but haven't seen such implementation jet. Alternative you can deliver Proxy.pac by policy defining different criteria's for each pac file. Here is a sample for Cloud which would work in the same way for local proxy as well: Link 

2. you can define log rotation time to rotate and push logs. However the default setting is most likely not an issue for majority of our customers.

3. sizing of CSR cant be done by number of log sources. At the end the number of logs and its size will be the factor to choose for certain amount of resources needed. From Installation guide I personally wouldn't go with less as Medium deployment and external DB.  here
