What is a Server proxy in VMware Backup?

Server Proxy is mandatory for backup environments where VMware hosts (ESXi & vCenter Server) are distributed across various locations, such as branch offices, and connected to the central Backup Server \ BDRShield Cloud via WAN. In these scenarios, Server Proxy ensures that remote hosts are effectively connected to the Backup Server\ BDRShield Cloud, enabling reliable backups regardless of their location. You can install Server Proxy on any machine that has access to the hypervisors. Watch this video for detailed information: How to Install Remote Proxy and Manage Remote Hypervisor Hosts
