PROXY protocol to upstream server

[Danila Vershinin]

Hi,

It seems that nginx can accept PROXY protocol fine, but when it comes to forwarding, it can only do so only within a stream { server { … proxy_protocol on; } } .

Are there any plans to add proxy_protocol on; for regular HTTP server blocks so it can be used alongside proxy_pass? This would come in very handy in a situation where NGINX is used as SSL terminator, e.g.:

NGINX (SSL) → (Proxy protocol) → Varnish.

Varnish supports accepting PROXY protocol.


Best Regards,
Danila
