Nginx Hard Code Header Proxy to Next Server
Here is the syntax: proxy_set_header syntax: proxy_set_header header value;
Default: host and Connection
Context: http, server, location
I am using it here:
server {
listen localhost:8081;
client_max_body_size 10M;
# redirect pairing and status check traffic to aws lambda
resolver 10.0.80.11 10.0.80.12 8.8.8.8;
set $ocpServer 'https://two_web_site';
location / {
if ( $http_user_agent = 'oldclientsproxy' ) {
proxy_pass http://one_web_site:5080;
}
if ( $http_user_agent != 'oldclientsproxy' ) {
proxy_pass $ocpServer;
}
#for testing the header, comments out
#proxy_pass http://requestbin.fullcontact.com/195blks1;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Sillycat-Agent 'nginxproxy';
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
}
}
server {
listen localhost:xxxx;
location /nginx_status {
access_log off;
allow 127.0.0.1;
deny all;
}
}
