YXORP is a Reverse proxy for the HTTP protocol. The main focus for YXORP is checking the validity of the traffic, i.e. what would be called 'application Layer firewalling' or 'secure reverse proxy' in commercial products. It can check, validate, and change just about anything about a HTTP request or response, can Load Balance, and all other normal reversed proxy functions. YXORP aims to conform to RFC 2616, RFC 2518, RFC 2109 and other applicable standards.
