+The `Proxy` object is used to manage cluster-wide egress proxy. When a cluster is
+installed or upgraded without proxy configured, a proxy object is still
+generated but it will have a nil spec/status. For example:
+
+----
+$ oc get proxy/cluster -o yaml
+apiVersion: config.openshift.io/v1
+kind: Proxy
+metadata:
+  creationTimestamp: "2019-08-21T22:36:49Z"
