<h3>Summary</h3>

    <p>This module <em>requires</em> the service of <code class="module"><a href="../mod/mod_proxy.html">mod_proxy</a></code>. It provides support for the tunnelling of web
    socket connections to a backend websockets server. The connection
    is automagically upgraded to a websocket connection:</p>

    <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">Upgrade: WebSocket
Connection: Upgrade</pre>



    <div class="example"><h3>Proxying requests to websockets server</h3><pre class="prettyprint lang-config">ProxyPass "/ws2/"  "ws://echo.websocket.org/"
ProxyPass "/wss2/" "wss://echo.websocket.org/"</pre>

    <p>This directive instructs the server to try to create an asynchronous tunnel.
    If the current MPM does not support the necessary features, a synchronous
    tunnel is used.</p>

    to change.</p></div>
