Use a proxy server

The Akamas CLI supports interacting with the API server through an HTTP/HTTPS proxy server.

To enable access via an HTTP proxy, set the environment variable HTTP_PROXY. From the following snippet, replace proxy_ip and proxy_port with the desired values.

export HTTP_PROXY="http://<proxy_ip>:<proxy_port>"

Then, run the akamas command to verify access.

Access through an HTTPS proxy can be set by using the environment variable HTTPS_PROXY instead of HTTP_PROXY.
