Anonymous
Configures the virtual host as an anonymous proxy (also called an
implicit
or
transparent proxy
) or as an explicit proxy.
The default value is
false
. Setting this element to
true
creates an implicit proxy to intercept the incoming URIs.
Both anonymous and explicit proxies intercept and aggregate the clients’ requests to connect to the origin server. Here
are some key differences between anonymous and explicit proxies:
•
The identity (IP address and port number) of an anonymous server is hidden from the client.
•
The anonymous proxy does not change or modify the routing information in the incoming URI before connecting
the client(s) to the origin server.
•
The URI for an explicit proxy specifies the edge server(s) that will intercept connection requests to the origin server.
You can create a chain of proxies by specifying them in the URI.
•
Any anonymous proxy in the chain passes on, without modification, the routing information in the URI to the next
edge server in the chain.
•
The routing information in the URI for a chain of explicit proxies specifies the edge servers that are chained
together to intercept connection requests to the origin server.
•
The routing information in the URI for a chain of explicit proxies specifically identifies the sequence of edge servers
in the chain.
•
The URI for a chain of explicit proxies directs all clients’ connection requests through a specific sequence of edge
servers before making the connection to the origin server.
•
The explicit proxy modifies the routing information in the URI by stripping off its token or identifier in the URI
before passing the URI on to the next server in the chain.
