Proxy

[Alexander Todorov]

Hi guys,
what's the role of beaker-proxy? Why the test systems don't communicate directly 
with the server but use the proxy instead ?

Hi Alex,

The test machines are not authenticated to talk directly to the 
scheduler, the lab controller is basically vouching for them since its 
the one that provisioned them.  The other benefit is that the test 
machines can be isolated on their own network.
