# Proxy Management
> New as of 0.5.0, Enhanced in 0.6.0
```
proxy:disable <app> # Disable proxy for app
proxy:enable <app> # Enable proxy for app
proxy:report [<app>] [<flag>] # Displays a proxy report for one or more apps
proxy:set <app> <proxy-type> # Set proxy type for app
```
In Dokku 0.5.0, port proxying was decoupled from the `nginx-vhosts` plugin into the proxy plugin. Dokku 0.6.0 introduced the ability to map host ports to specific container ports. In the future this will allow other proxy software - such as HAProxy or Caddy - to be used in place of nginx.
## Usage
### Container network interface binding
> Changed as of 0.11.0
From Dokku versions `0.5.0` until `0.11.0`, enabling or disabling an application's proxy would **also** control whether or not the application was bound to all interfaces - e.g. `0.0.0.0`. As of `0.11.0`, this is now controlled by the network plugin. Please see the [network documentation](/docs/networking/network.md#container-network-interface-binding) for more information.
### Displaying proxy reports for an app
> New as of 0.8.1
You can get a report about the app's proxy status using the `proxy:report` command:
```shell
dokku proxy:report
```
```
=====> node-js-app proxy information
Proxy enabled: true
Proxy type: nginx
Proxy port map: http:80:5000 https:443:5000
=====> python-sample proxy information
Proxy enabled: true
Proxy type: nginx
Proxy port map: http:80:5000
=====> ruby-sample proxy information
Proxy enabled: true
Proxy type: nginx
Proxy port map: http:80:5000
```
You can run the command for a specific app also.
```shell
dokku proxy:report node-js-app
```
```
=====> node-js-app proxy information
Proxy enabled: true
Proxy type: nginx
Proxy port map: http:80:5000 https:443:5000
```
You can pass flags which will output only the value of the specific information you want. For example:
```shell
dokku proxy:report node-js-app --proxy-type
```
#### Proxy Port Scheme
The proxy port scheme is as follows:
- `SCHEME:HOST_PORT:CONTAINER_PORT`
The scheme metadata can be used by proxy implementations in order to properly handle proxying of requests. For example, the built-in `nginx-vhosts` proxy implementation supports the `http`, `https`, `grpc` and `grpcs` schemes.
For the `grpc` and `grpcs` see [nginx blog post on grpc](https://www.nginx.com/blog/nginx-1-13-10-grpc/).
Developers of proxy implementations are encouraged to use whatever schemes make the most sense, and ignore configurations which they do not support. For instance, a `udp` proxy implementation can safely ignore `http` and `https` port mappings.
To change the proxy implementation in use for an application, use the `proxy:set` command:
```shell
# no validation will be performed against
# the specified proxy implementation
dokku proxy:set node-js-app nginx
```
