Testing a dynamic host needing a proxy server

Hi all,

In Hobbit 4.2.0 is there a way to set up a test from an internal network
to test http of an outside host, such as a DSL router?   Cavaet:  A
proxy server is required to get out and also the DSL is a dynamic IP.
This is on Solaris 10.

I currently have a line similar to this in the bbhost file.   NSLOOKUP
to the real host name works but ping fails (of course) since there is no
host file entry.

0.0.0.0 DSL1 # noconn https://dsl1.dyndns.biz:8080

Can anyone provide a detailed example of how to accomplish this?
