Global HTTP proxy settings

Use this payload to specify a proxy for all HTTP traffic to and from the device. If you choose Manual proxy type, you need the proxy server address—including its port, and optionally a user name and password—for logging in to the proxy server. If you choose Auto proxy type, you can enter a proxy auto-configuration (PAC) URL.

Note: Use the Global HTTP proxy payload for iOS device, user, and user group configuration profiles. For more information, see About profiles and payloads and Payload best practices.

This setting works only on supervised devices.
