Abstract

Methods and systems provide mechanisms for inspection devices, such as firewalls and servers and computers associated therewith, to modify HTTP requests, without requiring the inspection device to terminate the connections at the TCP (Transport Control Protocol) level, as occurs with contemporary web proxies, e.g., web proxy servers—either explicit or implicit proxies.
