| For a request to the given HOST:PORT pair, connect to |
| CONNECT-TO-HOST:CONNECT-TO-PORT instead. This option is suitable to direct |
| requests at a specific server, e.g. at a specific cluster node in a cluster of |
| servers. This option is only used to establish the network connection. It |
| does NOT affect the hostname/port that is used for TLS/SSL (e.g. SNI, |
| certificate verification) or for the application protocols. "host" and "port" |
| may be the empty string, meaning "any host/port". "connect-to-host" and |
| "connect-to-port" may also be the empty string, meaning "use the request's |
| original host/port". |
| |
| This option can be used many times to add many connect rules. |
