Symptoms

Configuring an Oracle Traffic Director in Java Cloud Service.

Should  be able to define a host pattern in Virtual Server -> Hosts. The documentation describes the term host patterns, but not what/How it is.

If we try to enter a pattern: *.  It throws an error  "OTD-68556 Host name or IP address is invalid"

However below it seems like it works:

HOSTS = HOST1.DOMAINNAME, HOST2,DOMAINNAME, HOST3.DOMAINNAME

But If  the subdomain to be whatever e.g., HOSTS = *.DOMAINNAME

Is that not possible and at the same time do not need to enter a static list of subdomain.domain?

2. Under Virtual Server -> Routes -> Parameters Forwarded to Origin Server cannot find the header x-forwarded-proto on the list.
Need this info to be forwarded as well - is that possible?
