Advanced Endpoint Settings

These options are intended for advanced use cases.

Preserve Host Header

When enabled:

• The CDN forwards the original request Host header to your origin

When disabled (default):

• The CDN sends the origin’s hostname as the Host header

⚠️ HTTPS Warning
If enabled, your origin must present a certificate that matches the CDN or custom domain.

Ignore Authorization Headers

• Disabled (default): responses with Authorization headers are not cached

• Enabled: responses are cached even if an Authorization header is present

⚠️ Enable only if you understand the security implications.

Forward Client IP

When enabled, the CDN forwards client identity using:

• X-Forwarded-For

• Forwarded (includes client IP and edge identifier)

This is useful for logging, analytics, or access control on your origin.
