DESCRIPTION

This plugin adds optional headers to be sent to backend servers in reverse proxy mode.

HEADERS

  • X-Forwarded-Port

    This header will contain an integer value indicating the port that the peer connected to. This will correspond to the port number specified on the listen line of the perlbal service that initially handled the connection.

  • X-Forwarded-Proto

    This header will contain a string indicating the protocol the client connected to perlbal via. Currently this will be either 'http' or 'https'.
