-Reverse Proxy
-=============
-
-In reverse proxy mode, mitmproxy accepts standard HTTP(S) requests and forwards
-them to the specified upstream server. This is in contrast to :ref:`upstreamproxy`, in which
-mitmproxy forwards HTTP(S) proxy requests to an upstream proxy server.
-
-================== ================================
-command-line       ``-R http[s]://hostname[:port]``
-================== ================================
-
-Here, **http[s]** signifies if the proxy should use TLS to connect to the server.
-mitmproxy always accepts both encrypted and unencrypted requests and transforms
-them to what the server expects.
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
-    >>> mitmdump -R https://httpbin.org -p 80
-    >>> curl http://localhost/
-    # requests will be transparently upgraded to TLS by mitmproxy
-
-    >>> mitmdump -R https://httpbin.org -p 443
-    >>> curl https://localhost/
-    # mitmproxy will use TLS on both ends.

-Host Header
------------
-
-In reverse proxy mode, mitmproxy automatically rewrites the Host header to match the
-upstream server. This allows mitmproxy to easily connect to existing endpoints on the
-open web (e.g. ``mitmproxy -R https://example.com``). You can disable this behaviour
-by passing ``--keep-host-header`` on the console.
-
-However, keep in mind that absolute URLs within the returned document or HTTP redirects will
-NOT be rewritten by mitmproxy. This means that if you click on a link for "http://example.com"
-in the returned web page, you will be taken directly to that URL, bypassing mitmproxy.
-
-One possible way to address this is to modify the hosts file of your OS so that "example.com"
-resolves to your proxy's IP, and then access the proxy by going directly to example.com.
-Make sure that your proxy can still resolve the original IP, or specify an IP in mitmproxy.
