Managing a host using a proxy
-
IIRC, it's needed to attach a proxy support license to your appliance. If you don't do it here, you'll have to register afterward. That's because proxies are an extra product invoiced per product.

No problem however I am confused.
If I use XO, which does not need registration, and the proxy does need registration however is the proxy registration tied to the unregistered XO?

To manage an XCP-ng host through a proxy, you’ll need to configure your management tools (like XenCenter or XCP-ng Center) to use the proxy settings. The host itself doesn’t have built-in proxy options, so the proxy setup is done on the client side. For a reliable proxy solution that works well in these setups, click here.

That's why XO proxies are great and the go-to solution
Alternatively, you can deploy an XO inside the target network and manage your hosts from there (but you won't have the unique central console with one XO+proxies for the entire infrastructure)
