It does not matter which OS is running Spacewalk Server or Spacewalk 
Proxy. And you do not need to setup anything.

If I make it *very simply* (and leave out the security) it work very 
similar as regular proxy. You request package, the proxy will retrieve 
its  checksum from Spacewalk Server, and proxy will look into its 
storage whether file with this checksum is already stored in memory or 
disk and if so, it is sent back. If not - it is retrieved from Spacewalk 
Server.

Spacewalk Proxy really does not care about channels or your version of OS.
