-Normally, mitmproxy uses the target domain specified in a client's proxy
-request to generate an interception certificate. When __upstream-cert__ mode is
-activated a different procedure is followed: a connection is made to the
-specified remote server to retrieve its __Common Name__ and __Subject
-Alternative Names__. This feature is especially useful when the client
-specifies an IP address rather than a host name in the proxy request. If this
-is the case, we can only generate a certificate if we can establish the __CN__
-and __SANs__ from the upstream server.
-
-Note that __upstream-cert__ mode does not work when the remote server relies on
-[Server Name Indication](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication).
-Luckily, SNI is still not very widely used.
