8.5.7. vantage6.node.proxy_server

This module contains a proxy server implementation that the node uses to communicate with the server. It contains general methods for any routes, and methods to handle tasks and results, including their encryption and decryption.

(!) Not to be confused with the squid proxy that allows algorithm containers to access other places in the network.
