[GitHub] [trafficserver] rob05c commented on pull request #9101: Fix handling of OPTIONS request

rob05c commented on PR #9101:
URL: https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/pull/9101#issuecomment-1281619482

   > I'm not sure if ATS can use another forward proxy to serve a request
   
   It can, via parent.config/strategies.yaml. We use multiple chained ATS forward-proxies in our CDN.
   
   > I think that's for forward proxy. A forward proxy should always know whether it uses another forward proxy
   
   Ahh, I think you're right. But I don't think ATS knows if it's making a forward-proxy request. You can configure it to make an absolute-uri request, but that could be a forward proxy or direct origin request, there's no way to know that from the config.
   
   I think I'm convinced it isn't possible to fulfill the spec automatically. And users can always use something like Header Rewrite to rewrite the asterisk-form, if they need to.
   
   To be clear, I wasn't objecting, just looking for input. This PR is an improvement, regardless of RFC9112ยง3.2.4.
