Get proxy address on 'Auto Proxy Discovery' mode on Mac OS X

I am using Mac OS X (Sierra). In my network preferences, the proxies settings are not configured manualy, but configured by turn on the 'Auto Proxy Discovery' checkbox. Screenshot of network preferences

Is there a way to get the address (ip and port) of the current proxy I am working with?

Is it possible to get this information via a command line on the terminal?

(The command 'networksetup -getwebproxy ' not working in this case of Auto Proxy Discovery)

I use the following command to list all the available auto configured proxy servers on mac osx.

curl -ksSL $(scutil --proxy | grep -m1 -Eioh "http.*") | grep -Eioh "\"PROXY.*:.*\""

Run scutil --proxy in Terminal. You will see the value of ProxyAutoConfigURLString in the output. Download and examine the content of the file at this URL and find those host:port strings prefixed with PROXY.
