option to set proxy

[pmraz123]

Hello

I'm getting error when trying to access vmanage (CURL.wget) via CLI. Looks script doesnt use system proxy I found on my MAC.

XYZ@SKLSPMAC005 ~ % sudo networksetup -getwebproxy wi-fi
Password:
Enabled: Yes
Server: XYZ.XYZ.XYZ.XYZ.com
Port: 8000
Authenticated Proxy Enabled: 0

when I try any wget/curl this is not taken. Just when I use --proxy in wget/curl pages works.

The same is with python-viptela/vmanage SDK. via CLI I can not get to vmanage and getting error timeout.
(icmp works).

If we could set what proxy should be used in these SDKs - that would be awesome.

(I replaced some internal stuff by XYZ from security reasons)

(vmanage, username, passwd were exported...just i don want to share them).
