Setting a Proxy

You can set a proxy to handle communication in place of the machine, and use it when connecting to devices outside the network, such as when browsing websites. Security is enhanced when using a proxy, because the machine does not directly access resources outside the network. Administrator or NetworkAdmin privileges are required in order to configure these settings.
