Configure Reverse Proxy for the Apache Tomcat and IIS Servers

1. Configure reverse proxy to append header X-Reverse-Proxy with the reverse proxy URL for Apache-server. To do this, open file %apache-home-directory%\conf\httpd.conf (where %apache-home-directory% is the Apache server home directory), and add the following lines:

   • LoadModule headers_module modules/mod_headers.so

   • RequestHeader set X-Reverse-Proxy http://srp-server-front-end-url

   Where http://srp-server-front-end-url is the entire reverse proxy’s frontend URL.

2. Restart the Apache Tomcat server.
