Class BackendConfiguration

org.glassfish.grizzly.http.server.BackendConfiguration
public class BackendConfiguration extends Object
This configuration might be useful, when Grizzly HttpServer is running behind an HTTP gateway like reverse proxy, load balancer etc... In this situation the HTTP gateway may preprocess initial HTTP request headers, examine them and forward modified HTTP request to a Grizzly HttpServer. For example HTTP request received via HTTPS might be forwarded using plain HTTP (for performance reason), so the protocol and client authentication might be lost when the HTTP request reaches Grizzly HttpServer. Using this configuration object, it's possible to instruct Grizzly HttpServer to use custom HTTP request headers to get information about original protocol used by client, user authentication information etc...
