Benefits to the users

  • It displays the available package lists, and in turn installs the missing and required packages.
  • The reverse proxy forwards to a fixed destination on behalf of arbitrary clients.
  • It will incorporates the content that is hosted from one server into a larger website.
  • It helps in configuring the applications settings.
  • It is well-to-do in Cent OS and as well as in ubuntu.
  • The parameters used in declaration is not case sensitive, which is an added advantage.
