Proxy Settings
==============

In most cases, no user interaction is required. However, some systems may require additional proxy settings for the current shell to allow **gsm** to establish a connection to the gempa package server.
**gsm** utilizes the Python `requests` module to transfer data, and there are several ways to define the proxy server. Below is an example of how to set the proxy settings:

.. code-block:: bash

   export HTTP_PROXY="http://10.10.1.10:3128"
   export HTTPS_PROXY="http://10.10.1.10:1080"

Make sure to replace the IP addresses and ports with those specific to your network configuration.
