title: What is the definition of proxy-aware
body: <p>I need clarification on the buzzword "Proxy-Aware".  Does it mean that a proxy is sensed after the app attempts to directly perform a operation with a host? Or is it that after the creation of a proxy object (think .net WebProxy) and passing in proxy address, port, login etc.., the app knows how create and use the proxy connection to the server?</p>
