Explanation

Port 3128 is the default HTTP proxy port configured on the Cisco WSA. When setting up a browser to use the WSA as a web proxy in explicit proxy mode, the browser proxy settings must point to the WSA's IP address on port 3128. Port 8080 (A) is a common alternative HTTP proxy port but not the WSA default. Port 8443 (B) is typically associated with HTTPS administrative interfaces. Port 8021 (C) is not a standard WSA proxy port. Port 3128 originated from the Squid proxy project and was adopted by IronPort (now Cisco) as the default.
