  1. Since environment variable pointing to proxy may be case sensitive and exist not only for HTTP but HTTPS and FTP protocols, and there's as well the way to avoid usage of proxy server for some addresses or server names with NO_PROXY variable I believe the proper command should be a bit more complex:

    env | grep -i proxy

    which will produce an output like

    NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.0/8,*.local,*.domain.com,192.168.0.0/16
FTP_PROXY=http://192.168.1.6:3128
https_proxy=http://192.168.1.6:3128
HTTP_PROXY=http://192.168.1.6:3128
HTTPS_PROXY=http://192.168.1.6:3128
http_proxy=http://192.168.1.6:3128
