HTTP method Connect used to install a tunnel between the client and the server through a proxy server.
This method allows the client and server to establish a direct connection, which is sometimes required to work with secure protocols such as HTTPS or WebSocket.
The main purpose of HTTP Connect is to transfer data through a secure tunnel ignoring any restrictions or filters of the proxy server.
For example, if you use a VPN to connect to your company's internal network, you may need to connect directly to your network server through a proxy. This is why the HTTP Connect method is used.
