## Class ProxyServlet

- java.lang.Object
- - org.eclipse.jetty.servlets.ProxyServlet

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    javax.servlet.Servlet
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    BalancerServlet, ProxyServlet.Transparent

      public class ProxyServlet
      extends Object
      implements javax.servlet.Servlet

  Asynchronous Proxy Servlet. Forward requests to another server either as a standard web proxy (as defined by RFC2616) or as a transparent proxy.

  This servlet needs the jetty-util and jetty-client classes to be available to the web application.

  To facilitate JMX monitoring, the "HttpClient" and "ThreadPool" are set as context attributes prefixed with the servlet name.

  The following init parameters may be used to configure the servlet:

  - name - Name of Proxy servlet (default: "ProxyServlet"
  - maxThreads - maximum threads
  - maxConnections - maximum connections per destination
  - timeout - the period in ms the client will wait for a response from the proxied server
  - idleTimeout - the period in ms a connection to proxied server can be idle for before it is closed
  - requestHeaderSize - the size of the request header buffer (d. 6,144)
  - requestBufferSize - the size of the request buffer (d. 12,288)
  - responseHeaderSize - the size of the response header buffer (d. 6,144)
  - responseBufferSize - the size of the response buffer (d. 32,768)
  - HostHeader - Force the host header to a particular value
  - whiteList - comma-separated list of allowed proxy destinations
  - blackList - comma-separated list of forbidden proxy destinations
