Constants

 The following "Proxy Flags" may be bit-wise combined to construct the flags
 attribute defined on this interface.


 This flag is set if the proxy is to perform name resolution itself.  If
 this is the case, the hostname is used in some fashion, and we shouldn't
 do any form of DNS lookup ourselves.
const unsigned short TRANSPARENT_PROXY_RESOLVES_HOST = 1
