Cached Pages

The Boost module can be used to cache pages on your website. Unfortunately, if a page is cached, it is served without accessing Drupal. This means, the redirection offered by the MobileKey doesn't take effect on pages cached by Boost or similar modules.

Also if you have a form of proxy cache (a cache before Apache2,) then the redirection will probably be prevented by that cache early on.

What is Reverse Proxy?

There are three excellent reasons to switch to a Reverse Proxy Server right away:

1. Protect all of the sensitive data on your servers;
2. Have only one gateway to the outside world;
3. Ease the load on your web server by allowing the reverse proxy server to distribute the requests.

Figure 1 below presents a simplified setup of a Reverse Proxy Server.
