 ## [Unreleased]
 
 ### Added
+- apt's proxy (napalm-device-types' `AptProxyMixin`, NetOrk/netork#1397): `get_package_proxy()`, `get_package_proxy_report()`, `check_package_proxy(url, expect)` and the fix `configure_package_proxy(url)`, as on any Debian host. The node is logged in as root, so the file is written and other proxy lines are commented out over the exec path. Requires napalm-device-types 4.22.0; version 0.7.0.
 - `get_service_packages()` (napalm-device-types' `ServicePackagesMixin`, NetOrk/netork#1236): which installed packages each systemd unit of the node is made of — the one shipping its unit file and the one shipping its `ExecStart` binary. Read-only, over the exec path. Requires napalm-device-types 4.20.0; version 0.6.0.
