The problem with Android ICS is that proxy settings are correctly handled for WiFi connection. In case of Ethernet, it is more difficult and you may need to reuse the ECM integration into Android AOSP (see work done at Linaro) as a start for a complete integration of ethernet connection and management of proxy with this kind of network.
I have started to work on it but I don't have anything yet. I'm still trying to understand how a network connection works in Android.
