Thanks, it's what we already use on gnome, my question was more about
apps like YUM/DNF which doesn't care about gnome config and doesn't like
pac files.
My thoughts are that I should write maybe a simple scripts triggered by
network manager which configures everything depending on the current
host IP or something like this.

You can tell DHCP to issue a proxy server specification.

Whether Linux distros have enough cluefulness to use that by default is unknown to me, but things like phones etc generally do. You need to define an additional DHCP field and fill that in with the URL of a proxy.pac file (standard piece of javascript which tells browsers which proxy settings to use on a per URL basis).

Have a look at this:
