It is an http connection daemon, or management program. For example, it can be configured to allow specific IP connections. When the traffic is large, it can reject certain connections to protect the system. However, this function is relatively simple and suitable for small servers. It is useless when encountering large distributed systems. In general, this is a management connection (connection) and not just a proxy function

It is HTTP/HTTPS proxy. I don’t know when I will use it, but it says that it is easy to modify, so if you have special needs that are not supported by other HTTP proxies, you can use it.
