HTTPS Proxying

Hi Team,

Currently trailing the product and I'm curious about the redirect/proxying which I gather I can't test on a trial

How does the proxying work without breaking HTTPS?

Or am I misunderstanding?

At first I thought perhaps it was just using a DNS server with a masked client IP to return a specific DNS response which would be proxied back, but the docs specifically say that your client IP address is changed, so that's more than just DNS

So then I thought perhaps the DNS response would be a proxy IP that my device then connected to, but then you'd not have certs for domains I was trying to proxy and there's no app or root CA (not that I'd trust you with that yet sorry ;) )

So..how is this working? Am I overthinking?

Appreciate as much detail as you can share as it's not clear in the docs

Thanks
