Invisible Proxying

TIP

View the Invisible Proxying for Non-Proxy Aware Thick Clients tutorial for a detailed walk-through on configuring invisible proxying.

NOTE

If you enable invisible proxying on a remote instance, you must ensure the same address and port is used. This includes any SSH port forwarding you may use. Otherwise, Caido will not be able to split the traffic correctly and will not work.

Caido CLI

By default, invisible proxying is disabled for the Caido CLI. To enable invisible proxying with the Caido CLI, launch Caido with the --invisible argument.

caido --invisible

Desktop Application

By default, invisible proxying is enabled for local instances. To disable invisible proxying within the Caido desktop application, in the launch window, click on the button attached to an instance and select Edit.

The Edit instance option.

Then, click on Advanced to expand the drop-down settings menu options and click on the Enable invisible proxying checkbox to remove its fill.

The Advanced instance options.

Click on the Save button to update and save the configuration.
