Pre-defining Global HTTP Proxies
A Global HTTP Proxy is an optional server that stands as a middleman between the devices and the internet. To use the proxy server, devices must be configured to connect to it. You can pre-configure global HTTP proxy settings and apply them to groups, so that all devices within those groups connect to the same proxy or proxies.
Global HTTP proxy settings can only be applied to iOS devices.
