>                 Key: TS-291
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-291
>             Project: Traffic Server
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Network
>         Environment: Linux

>            Assignee: Alan M. Carroll
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Currently ATS provides only explicit forward proxying. It should support this transparently as well.
> Transparent means
> * No configuration on clients.
> * Origin server sees the client IP address as the source address of the cache fill request.
> This should be an option set via configuration variables because transparent proxying is not always the correct mode of operation. In addition, it requires a Linux kernel with TPROXY support and so will not run in all environments.
