Yes; that's correct.

Also, by doing so, am I sure that it will absolutely use the proxy,
isn't there another property to change, like ProxyEnabled or something?

The dictionary from SystemConfiguration includes enabled keys, so CFNetwork looks for them. If they are present, CFNetwork respects their values (so set them to kCFBooleanTrue). However, if they are absent, CFNetwork assumes you want the proxy enabled. So either leave them out altogether, or make sure they are set to true. If you're constructing the entire dictionary by hand, I would just leave them out altogether.

Actually, I would have suggested that the enabled key always be included. Otherwise, the behavior of any code which used the proxy dictionary would be unknown (some may choose to assume "yes", others "no").
