The problem with this setup is, what will happen if the website is using
some css, js files from other domains? Adding a rule for each of these
domains will be painfull after a while i assume. But on the other hand, i
will be using this reverse proxy node as the first entry point to my DDoS
protection network, so not sure whether DPI is a good thing here or not.
