UIM - UMP/Operator Console CABI proxy configuration

Issue/Introduction
We are trying to get the UIM 20.x. "operator console" working externally for access.
The UMP(or OC) is available outside of the company and you can log in to the Operator Console. However, the operator console CABI Dashboards do not load. (Spins forever)
We have a Proxy Server to allow the UMP (Or operator console) accessible externally. Do we need to configure a proxy also for CABI to be reachable?
Cause
CABI needs to be reachable externally. When hitting the Operator Console, the browser will try to connect to the cabi_url defined in the wasp.cfg. If this is not reachable externally, then it is expected that no dashboard will be shown.
Environment
Release : 20.x
Component : UIM - OPERATOR CONSOLE
Resolution
The Development Team confirmed that, by design, there should be an external URL to access CABI server content externally.
The cabi_url value should be updated with the external reachable url. Only then, the CABI content is displayed in OC/UMP.
So, In the cabi probe, define a setup/cabi_url key to contain the full name from the browser perspective (eg https://cabi.lan/cabijs).
If you are using a Load Balancer, the cabi_url key defined will be the url that will be inserted into the pages so that the connection will be opened via the LB rather than directly to the CABI server.
