      --header-name="X-Proxy-Filter"    Header name to read filter configuration from. The content
                                        of the header shall be a base64 encoded JSON array with
                                        strings. Each string is a filter. Multiple filters are
                                        joined with a logical OR.

                                        from an admin, which allows the admin-only VictoriaMetrics
                                        diagnostics. nginx overwrites it on every route reaching
                                        this proxy, so clients cannot set it.
