Description

At present, Knox is passing down Host header value as the host name to which client made call to Knox.

For example,
If Knox is listening at https://localhost:8443
and passing down call to http://c6401:11000,
in the request passed down to http://c6401:11000,
we see the header, Host: localhost:8443.
This could cause potential problem in real customer clusters.
