[macOS] Disable the option to modify the status of the Transparent Proxy.

Hi Team,

Im trying to disable the option to change the status of the Transparent Proxy enable/disable but there is no API which works in NETransparentProxyManager.

Could you suggest, how to disable the option to change the status of the Transparent Proxy enable/disable? We want to disable it so that no one can modify it from the settings.

This option is coming in Network -> Vpn & Filters

I observed that some other providers disabled it in the "Network -> VPN & Filters" settings.

We don’t, in general, let apps configure the system in a way that prevents an admin user from undoing that configuration, at least on unmanaged devices. If you need this on a managed device, I recommend that you look to MDM and its configuration profile features.
