The rewrite plugin does not implement forwarding HTTPS requests through the HTTPS proxy correctly; however, forwarding HTTP requests through the HTTP proxy does work correctly.
Users are unable to connect to this resource
APM portal access resource configured with https:// scheme
To work around the problem, create a layered virtual server to catch HTTPS traffic leaving APM and forward it to a HTTPS proxy server using CONNECT. Proxy authentication is not implemented and if the response status from HTTPS proxy server is not 200, then use an iRule to close the connection
