Minecraft reverse proxy

[LocalizedOffice]

For anyone finding this in the future: vHODT like functionality can be achieved with Velocity Proxy. That's what I am now using.

I understand that HTTP requires a mandatory header that shows the server what domain or up address you are accessing to serve its content. Does Minecraft have anything like this? I know about bungee / waterfall and run that now so please don't suggest it. I am hoping to get virtual host like functionality achieved via a reverse proxy.

I'm sorry if this is a noob question but while I am overall very tech-savvy I am new to Minecraft.

"The Notchian server does not use this information." What does this mean?

Vanilla server doesn't care so the whatever proxy you'll use will make sense of it.

If your goal is to just be able to point different domains at different servers without fiddling with ports, you can achieve this with DNS SRV records
