35<h3>Summary</h3>
36
37    <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>. It provides support for the <code>CONNECT</code>
38    HTTP method. This method is mainly used to tunnel SSL requests
39    through proxy servers.</p>
40
41    <p>Thus, in order to get the ability of handling <code>CONNECT</code>
42    requests, <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code> and
43    <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_proxy_connect.html">mod_proxy_connect</a></code> have to be present in the server.</p>
44
45    <p>CONNECT is also used, when the server needs to send an HTTPS request
46    through a forward proxy. In this case the server acts as a CONNECT client.
47    This functionality is part of <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code> and
48    <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_proxy_connect.html">mod_proxy_connect</a></code> is not needed in this case.</p>
49
50    <div class="warning"><h3>Warning</h3>
51      <p>Do not enable proxying until you have <a href="mod_proxy.html#access">secured your server</a>. Open proxy
52      servers are dangerous both to your network and to the Internet at
53      large.</p>
