Managing order of Transparent Proxies from MDM like JAMF
There could be a case where-in multiple transparent proxies might exist in the system (for ex., Cisco AnyConnect, GlobalProtect, etc). We want to know if there is a way to order transparent proxies so that the desired transparent proxy gets the request first. During our research, we found a resource which talks about ordering transparent proxies through MDM. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/devicemanagement/vpn/transparentproxy Using this reference, we tried to create a profile and push it through JAMF. Below is the profile that we created and pushed with JAMF. Property List - <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>TransparentProxy</key> <array> <dict> <key>ProviderBundleIdentifier</key> <string>com.paloaltonetworks.GlobalProtect.client.extension</string> <key>Order</key> <string>1</string> </dict> <dict> <key>ProviderBundleIdentifier</key> <string>com.cisco.anyconnect.macos.acsockext</string> <key>Order</key> <string>2</string> </dict> <dict> <key>ProviderBundleIdentifier</key> <string>com.mydomain.transparentproxy</string> <key>Order</key> <string>3</string> </dict> </array> We are not sure if this is the right way to create the profile, though JAMF is not throwing any error while pushing this profile. We see this profile on the local machine as "/Library/Managed Preferences/com.apple.networking.vpn-transparent-list.plist". Is there a way to know if the profile took effect and the order of transparent proxies has changed. Thanks in advance.
