$proxy = "http://myproxy.local:port"  

# Create a directory to store the bootstrap script
New-Item -ItemType Directory -Force -Path C:\temp

# Set the security protocol to TLS 1.2
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12

# Check if a proxy is needed and configure the web request accordingly
if ($proxy -ne $null) {
    $proxyUri = New-Object System.Uri($proxy)
    # Download the bootstrap script using the specified proxy
