Abstract

HTTP request proxying behaviors have long been part of the core HTTP specification. However, the core request proxying functionality has several important deficiencies in modern HTTP environments. This specification defines an alternative proxy service configuration for HTTP requests. The proxy service is identified by a URI Template, similarly to "connect-tcp" and "connect-udp".
