Point a client

Previous Next

An explicit client sends ordinary HTTP requests and HTTPS CONNECT tunnels to the proxy.

export HTTP_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:3128
export HTTPS_PROXY=http://127.0.0.1:3128
export NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1
curl --proxy http://127.0.0.1:3128 https://httpbingo.org/get
docker run --rm \
  --add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway \
  -e HTTPS_PROXY=http://host.docker.internal:3128 \
  curlimages/curl:latest https://httpbingo.org/get

The node chooses an effective rule file from the socket peer's source address. Container networking may make that address the bridge gateway rather than the container address; confirm the access log before installing a per-IP override.

Next: verify the policy and TLS behavior.
