Hi,

I deployed a Vault server (v0.6.0) behind our corporate proxy and would like to leverage it to manage my aws accounts with aws backend. I failed to do so because of unavailability of aws endpoint. So what is the correct way to configure Vault server using a proxy when accessing aws? I did not find out a clue in current documentation. Thanks!

Best Regards,

Jeff Mitchell

Hi Li,

Using normal proxy environment variables (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY,
NO_PROXY) should do the right thing -- see
https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#ProxyFromEnvironment which is what
our AWS client uses. I don't believe there is SOCKS support currently,
though.

Best,
Jeff
