hi, the community Within some datacenter, access internet web sites(HTTPS) from intranet, it needs to make the SSL tunnel request[1] with http connect method[2].
Like one datacenter plan security zones with DMZ[3] SF PTR, web servers place in DMZ and they can access internet but not the SF and PTR. If web servers in SF access internet, they need the transparent proxy through DMZ via HTTP CONNECT tunnel. Nginx and OpenResty can supported with nix_http_proxy_connect_module[4]. If Apache APISIX integrate with this module or the similar, so we can make it as transparent proxy server. Hopefully hear your voice.
