+Without InfluxDB, Yardstick stores results for running test case in the file
+``/tmp/yardstick.out``. However, it's inconvenient to retrieve and display
 test results. So we will show how to use InfluxDB to store data and use
 Grafana to display data in the following sections.

 Firstly, enter the Yardstick container::
 
-  docker exec -it yardstick /bin/bash

 Secondly, create InfluxDB container and configure with the following command::
 
-  yardstick env influxdb
+   yardstick env influxdb
 
 Thirdly, create and configure Grafana container::
 
-  yardstick env grafana
+   yardstick env grafana
 
-Then you can run a test case and visit http://host_ip:3000 (``admin``/``admin``) to see the results.

-Proxy Support (**Todo**)
----------------------------
+Proxy Support
+-------------
+
+To configure the Jumphost to access Internet through a proxy its necessary to
+export several variables to the environment, contained in the following
+script::
+
+   #!/bin/sh
+   _proxy=<proxy_address>
+   _proxyport=<proxy_port>
+   _ip=$(hostname -I | awk '{print $1}')
+
+   export ftp_proxy=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export FTP_PROXY=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export http_proxy=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export HTTP_PROXY=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export https_proxy=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export HTTPS_PROXY=http://$_proxy:$_proxyport
+   export no_proxy=127.0.0.1,localhost,$_ip,$(hostname),<.localdomain>
+   export NO_PROXY=127.0.0.1,localhost,$_ip,$(hostname),<.localdomain>
+
+To enable Internet access from a container using ``docker``, depends on the OS
+version. On Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, which uses SysVinit, ``/etc/default/docker`` must
+be modified::
+
+   .......
+   # If you need Docker to use an HTTP proxy, it can also be specified here.
+   export http_proxy="http://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
+   export https_proxy="https://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
+
+Then its necessary to restart the ``docker`` service::
+
+   sudo -EH service docker restart
+
+In Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, which uses Systemd, its necessary to create a drop-in
+directory::
+
+   sudo mkdir /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d
+
+Then, the proxy configuration will be stored in the following file::
 
+   # cat /etc/systemd/system/docker.service.d/http-proxy.conf
+   [Service]
+   Environment="HTTP_PROXY=https://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
+   Environment="HTTPS_PROXY=https://<proxy_address>:<proxy_port>/"
+   Environment="NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1,<localaddress>,<.localdomain>"
+
+The changes need to be flushed and the ``docker`` service restarted::
+
+   sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+   sudo systemctl restart docker
+
+Any container is already created won't contain these modifications. If needed,
+stop and delete the container::
+
+   sudo docker stop yardstick
+   sudo docker rm yardstick
+
+.. warning:: Be careful, the above ``rm`` command will delete the container
+completely. Everything on this container will be lost.
+
+Then follow the previous instructions `Prepare the Yardstick container`_ to
+rebuild the Yardstick container.
