+Repository Access Behind HTTP Proxy
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Some setups have restricted access to the internet, sometimes only through a
+central proxy. You can setup a HTTP proxy through the Proxmox Backup Server's
+web-interface in the `Configuration -> Authentication` tab.
+
+Once configured this proxy will be used for apt network requests and for
+checking a Proxmox Backup Server support subscription.
+
+Standard HTTP proxy configurations are accepted, `[http://]<host>[:port]` where
+the `<host>` part may include an authorization, for example:
+`http://user:pass@proxy.example.org:12345`
