| Description: | HTTP support module for
mod_proxy
|
|---|---|
| Status: | Extension |
| Module Identifier: | proxy_http_module |
| Source File: | proxy_http.c |
This module requires the service of mod_proxy. It provides the features used for
proxying HTTP requests. mod_proxy_http
supports HTTP/0.9, HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1. It does not
provide any caching abilities. If you want to set up a caching
proxy, you might want to use the additional service of the
mod_cache module.
Thus, in order to get the ability of handling HTTP proxy requests,
mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http
have to be present in the server.
Do not enable proxying until you have secured your server. Open proxy servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at large.
