[qubes-users] Qubes in a corporate network behind HTTP proxy

Please help a somewhat noob who wants to use Qubes in the office. I got the OK to try using Qubes R3.2 in my company network as a workstation. They have a very restrictive proxy that forces all traffic through an HTTP/HTTPS proxy like: proxy.example.com:8080 How could I force all Qubes traffic
