OK guys, I think you got my point.
@Alex, thank you for the well-detailed answer.
My main need is to encrypt/protect username and password (or
Proxy-Authentication header) sent on the first CONNECT to the proxy
server, in a way this username and password can't be sniffed.
The other need is creating a rule allowing only some dstdomain's.
So I understand that I can achieve that:
1. Enabling "https_port" directive (on a specific port)
2. Using an ACL rule like
acl allowed_target dstdomain api.mydomain.com
http_access allow auth_users allowed_target
Is that right?
My scenario is:
I have a serverless API that needs to connect to a couple specific
targets from a static IP.
As this serverless API doesn't have a static IP, I thought to do this
through a proxy server.
That's why I need to enforce security on the authentication layer.
Thanks
Ronan
