Directives
Forward Proxy Configuration
A forward proxy is activated using the ProxyRequests directive.
Reverse Proxy Configuration
A reverse proxy is activated using the ProxyPass directive or the [P] flag to the RewriteRule directive. It is not necessary to turn ProxyRequests on in order to configure a reverse proxy.
Controlling access to the Proxy
Use the <Proxy> control block:
<Proxy "*">
Require ip 192.168.0
</Proxy>
mod_proxy mod_cluster Configuration
mod_proxy directives like ProxyIOBufferSize could be used to configure mod_cluster.
There is no need to use ProxyPass directives because mod_cluster automatically configures which URLs have to be forwarded to JBossWEB.
Reference
ProxyTimeout
This directive allows a user to specifiy a timeout on proxy requests. This is useful when the application server is slow, and you would rather just return a timeout and fail gracefully instead of waiting however long it takes the server to return.
