Guys,

how we can add proxy setting in ansible when we use ansible\_connection=winrm?

fatal: [10.2.20.56]: UNREACHABLE! =\> {  
“changed”: false,  
“msg”: “ssl: HTTPSConnectionPool(host=‘10.2.20.56’, port=5986): Max retries exceeded with url: /wsman (Caused by ProxyError(‘Cannot connect to proxy.’, error(104, ‘Connection reset by peer’)))”,  
“unreachable”: true  
}

you want to use a proxy for reaching remote server, or you want to change proxy setting on the remote server?
