Details

This variable was briefly introduced in 1.37 (added in gerrit:713896 and removed in gerrit:731158). It was correctly re-introduced in 1.38 (gerrit:728622).

Reverse proxy to use for requests to domains in $wgLocalVirtualHosts .

When used, any port in the request URL will be dropped. The behaviour of redirects and cookies is dependent upon the reverse proxy actually in use, as MediaWiki doesn't implement any special handling for them.

If set to false, no reverse proxy will be used for local requests.
