About Proxy Header Filtering Settings

You can specify which HTTP headers, if any, are to be blocked by your server. Headers contain information including the User-Agent (browser and operating system data), Client-IP (the IP address of the requestor), and a Referrer (provides the destination server with the URL of the referring link to this page). There are advantages and disadvantages to blocking this header information. Blocking header information increases the client's anonymity, but it also sometimes prevents the client from receiving customized materials.
