2. Override the Access Control mode by Command Lines

From Proxyman 4.4.0, it's possible to override the Access Control by the following CLI.

It's useful if your company would enforce the mode without using GUI.

$ defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.proxyman.NSProxy.plist accessControlModeString "allowAll"
$ defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.proxyman.NSProxy.plist accessControlModeString "disallowAll"
$ defaults write ~/Library/Preferences/com.proxyman.NSProxy.plist accessControlModeString "specificIP"
