> So a proxy should block any POST to 20.223.25.152 unless that IP somehow overlaps with ABS. But in that case, there's no reason for the agent to mess with `/etc/hosts` not `--resolve`. The agent could just use `curl` with the PBI IP in URL and the PBI Host header. But it doesn't do that.
I think this is the part I'm not following, and sorry if I've missed something. There are two ways to construct the request you showed. One is to mess with /etc/hosts. Another is to use `--resolve`. Just because the agent chose one doesn't mean it couldn't have done the other. What makes you think it couldn't have used `--resolve` as well?
