+Here, **schema** is one of http, https, http2https or https2http. The latter
+two extended schema specifications control the use of HTTP and HTTPS on
+mitmproxy and the upstream server. You can indicate that mitmproxy should use
+HTTP, and the upstream server uses HTTPS like this:
+
+ http2https://hostname:port
+
+And you can indicate that mitmproxy should use HTTPS while the upstream
+service uses HTTP like this:
+
+ https2http://hostname:port
