Proxy warning

If you got a message like this, you may be wondering why.

This warning appears when a request was received carrying a "command" that only a proxy should set.

This should happen when people is reaching you through a proxy. You should be aware of this. If you are not totally sure, investigate. Even an nginx you have locally tunneling the traffic HFS gets counts as proxy. When you are sure that this proxy is legit, only then you should configure HFS to accept it, by setting the number of proxies to 1, if 1 is the number of the proxies you have in front of HFS.

BUT, if you don't have any legit proxy that you know, then we can assume the request was forged to try to fool the server. This implies no harm, as HFS by default will ignore such command and you don't need to do anything. The warning is mostly there to help you handle the legit case, as only that case requires your intervention.

You can use the "ignore" button if you want to hide the warning.
