Proxy support?

In a quick test, I see two HTTP requests sent via the configured proxy. The first is a call for get_version and the second is get_product_information. After that, I don't see the proxy used when saving a rule, creating a rule, deleting a rule or logging out.

 

 

A simple way to test this is to run Burp (a standalone jar executable interception proxy) (Click here), and configure the iRuler to use 127.0.0.1:8080 as the proxy.

 

 

Thanks again,
