 ## Passing a Request to a Proxied Server
 
-When NGINX proxies a request, it sends the request to a specified proxied server, fetches the response, and sends it back to the client. It is possible to proxy requests to an HTTP server (another NGINX server or any other server) or a non-HTTP server (which can run an application developed with a specific framework, such as PHP or Python) using a specified protocol. Supported protocols include [FastCGI](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_fastcgi_module.html), [uwsgi](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_uwsgi_module.html), [SCGI](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_scgi_module.html), and [memcached](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_memcached_module.html).

-Note that in the first example above, the address of the proxied server is followed by a URI, `/link/`. If the URI is specified along with the address, it replaces the part of the request URI that matches the location parameter.

If the address is specified without a URI, or it is not possible to determine the part of URI to be replaced, the full request URI is passed (possibly, modified).

 ## Passing Request Headers
