- <summary>
- <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <module
- >mod_proxy</module>. It provides the features used for
- proxying HTTP requests. <module>mod_proxy_http</module>
- supports HTTP/0.9, HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1. It does <em>not</em>
- provide any caching abilities. If you want to set up a caching
- proxy, you might want to use the additional service of the
- <module>mod_cache</module> module.</p>
-
- <p>Thus, in order to get the ability of handling HTTP proxy requests,
- <module>mod_proxy</module> and <module>mod_proxy_http</module>
- have to be present in the server.</p>
-
- <note type="warning"><title>Warning</title>
- <p>Do not enable proxying until you have <a
- href="mod_proxy.html#access">secured your server</a>. Open proxy
- servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at
- large.</p>
