Meshlets can use  proxy servers  to avoid directly sending a request to a  target server . Instead of a direct request, meshlets will send a request to the proxy server, and the proxy server will send the request to the target. To connect to the proxy server, you will need the following values:  Directive Description host Address that is hosting the proxy server port Port number that represents the communication endpoint username Username credentials to connect to the server  password Password credentials to connect to the server Example application-dev.yml configuration The example below shows part of the configuration that must be set for the meshlet to connect to a HTTP proxy for connecting to target systems (i.e. Jira Service Management if using the Jira Service Management Incident meshlet to integrate with): perspectium:
    proxy:
	    host: proxyExample.perspectium.net 
	    port: 8080
	    username: userExample
	    password: userPassword  SOCKS (TCP) Proxy To connect the meshlet through a  SOCKS  proxy server for connecting to Perspectium MBS through RabbitMQ to access queues, use the following:  spring:
	rabbitmq:
		host: proxyExample.perspectium.net 
		port: 5672
		username: username
		password: password
		proxy:
			host: example_socks_host
			port: 1080
