Description

with
[records.config]
proxy.config.url_remap.remap_required INT 0
proxy.config.http.parent_proxy_routing_enable INT 1
proxy.config.http.no_dns_just_forward_to_parent INT 1
ATS still requires a remap URL to be used. The way I worked around this was to have remapped URLs to themselves:
[remap.config]
map http://example.com http://example.com
map http://sub.example.com http://sub.example.com

With those settings all requests are passed through to my origin, or "parent cache" servers. The pass to the parent cache did not work in 3.0.1. I had to build from the 3.0.x branch for this to function.
[parent.config]
dest_domain=. parent="1.2.3.4:80; 4.5.6.7:80" round_robin=strict

I think this is convoluted given my fairly common setup of two reverse proxies caching/load balancing round robin to a few origin servers. I guess the only "bug" here is that the remap_required parameter is not functioning as well as it could be. I hope for improvement in the way this setup is handled.
