Default Request Actions

(default) Translate Host header

The value in the incoming Host header is replaced by the back-end host. Rewriting the Host header may be necessary if the application server expects the back-end host name instead of the external host name, for example when using name-based virtual hosts on the backend.

This action is enabled by default.

(default) Translate Referer header

The incoming referer header is rewritten to match the back-end protocol/host/URL. Rewriting the referer may be necessary if the application interprets the referer field but is not reverse-proxy compatible.

This action is enabled by default.

(default) Translate Origin header

The incoming origin header is rewritten to match the back-end protocol/host/URL. Rewriting the origin may be necessary if the application interprets the origin field but is not reverse-proxy compatible.

This action is enabled by default.

(default) Set X-Forwarded-For header

Sets an X-Forwarded-For header to preserve the original client IP address for backends.

This action is enabled by default.

(default) Set X-Forwarded-Proto header

Sets an X-Forwarded-Proto header to preserve the original protocol for backends.

This action is enabled by default.
