Setting up a SPICE Proxy consists of installing Squid on a machine and configuring iptables to allow proxy traffic through the firewall.

Turning a SPICE Proxy on consists of using engine-config on the Manager to set the key SpiceProxyDefault to a value consisting of the name and port of the proxy.

Turning a SPICE Proxy off consists of using engine-config on the Manager to remove the value that the key SpiceProxyDefault has been set to.
