It records commands, API calls and queries and streams them to the audit log.
- Proxy provides networking and connectivity features. Nodes and proxies behind firewalls can connect
to proxies using reverse tunnels. System administrators can use TLS routing feature to compress all ports for all protocols to one TLS port using TLS routing feature.
