DS8K TCT can support a proxy server

[Background]
We were planning on using TCT to store data in IBM cloud. Because the customer hopes to have the encrypted data stored externally and used in a contingency.
However, the customer's security policy requires the use of a proxy server for all external NW connections, and since TCT does not support proxy servers, the customer is reconsidering the use of IBM cloud.

[Description]
The customer believes that TCT should support proxy servers.
Many mainframe users in Japan use proxy servers for their NW connections to the outside world. 
Considering the promotion of cloud computing, if TCT doesn't support proxy servers, business opportunities will be missed.
