NAME

6       LWP::Protocol::connect - Provides HTTP/CONNECT proxy support for
7       LWP::UserAgent
8

SYNOPSIS

10         use LWP::UserAgent;
11
12         $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
13         $ua->proxy('https', 'connect://proxyhost.domain:3128/');
14
15         $ua->get('https://www.somesslsite.com');
16

Proxy Authentication

18       If you pass the authentication within the userinfo string of the proxy
19       url a Basic authentication header will always be generated and sent to
20       the proxy.
21
22         $ua->proxy('https', 'connect://user:pw@proxyhost.domain:3128');
23
24       The more general way is to add the credentials of the proxy to the $ua
25       object.
26
27         $ua->credentials("localhost:3128", "Squid proxy-caching web server", "user", "pw");
28
29       In this case the first request to the proxy will fail with a "407 Proxy
30       Auth. Required".  This will cause LWP::UserAgent to choose the right
31       LWP::Authen::<method> module to add the authentication and retry.
32

DESCRIPTION

34       The LWP::Protocol::connect module provides support for using https over
35       a proxy via the HTTP/CONNECT method.
