Apache 2

--enable-proxy --enable-proxy-connect --enable-proxy-ftp --enable-proxy-http --enable-proxy-balancer (apache 2.1 and later) --enable-proxy-ajp (apache 2.1 and later)


To enable proxy support in Apache, you need to enable the main proxy module and some or all of the three supported backends: HTTP, CONNECT, and FTP. The CONNECT option allows SSL connections to pass untouched via the proxy. The FTP backend allows the proxy server to act as a gateway to access remote FTP servers via a normal HTTP browser. Apache 2.1 and later versions include two additional proxy modules: balancer, which provides load-balancing support, and ajp, which provides support for the AJP protocol, commonly used to communicate with Tomcat and other servlet engines.
