NAME
       Perlbal::Plugin::XFFExtras - Perlbal plugin that can optionally add an X-Forwarded-Port and/or X-Forwarded-Proto header to reverse proxied
       requests.

SYNOPSIS
	   # in perlbal.conf

	   LOAD XFFExtra

	   CREATE POOL web
	       POOL web ADD 10.0.0.1:80

	   CREATE SERVICE proxy
	       SET role 		       = reverse_proxy
	       SET listen		       = 0.0.0.0:80
	       SET pool 		       = web

	       SET plugins	       = XFFExtras

	       SET send_backend_port   = yes
	       SET send_backend_proto  = yes
	   ENABLE proxy

DESCRIPTION
       This plugin adds optional headers to be sent to backend servers in reverse proxy mode.

HEADERS
       o   X-Forwarded-Port

	   This header will contain an integer value indicating the port that the peer connected to.  This will correspond to the port number
	   specified on the listen line of the perlbal service that initially handled the connection.

       o   X-Forwarded-Proto

	   This header will contain a string indicating the protocol the client connected to perlbal via. Currently this will be either 'http' or
	   'https'.
