I am using the JavaScript (nodejs) client from inside a corporate network to access a cluster hosted by [Elastic.co](http://Elastic.co) (AWS). There does not seem to be any clear way to set the configuration to use my corporate proxy ([proxy-server.corp.com](http://proxy-server.corp.com)).

var client = new elasticsearch.Client({  
host: '[proxy-server.corp.com:8080](http://proxy-server.corp.com:8080) [http://6c9625.us-east-1.aws.found.io:9200](http://6c9625.us-east-1.aws.found.io:9200)',  
log: 'trace'  
});

Any advise would be appreciated.

thanks

Mike on a corporate network

I'm not sure but I think this is something you would want to set up on the server running Node and not within the Elasticsearch client itself.
