Abstract
Layer-specific modifications may be applied to a network communication received at a proxy according to configurable rules at the proxy. A modification configuration may be received at the proxy that corresponds to a layer of a communication stack supported by the proxy. When a communication is received, data from the layer of the communication stack of the network communication may be evaluated to determine whether a modification is applicable to the communication according to the modification configuration. An applicable modification may be applied by proxy as part of processing the communication at the proxy.
