NGC CLI behind https proxy

Does NGC cli have a proxy option?
My customer is using an https proxy (which also takes care of dns resolution) and NGC is not working on my RHL9 VM.
I need it to install an NVDIA A40 virtualized on the server.

Error is:
[Errno -2] Name or service not known

could I download the guest driver from another vm that has connectivity and the registered API key?
