Proxy_set_header not effetive in http scope?

Server NGINX
1

Hi,
I test “proxy_set_header User-Agent test-ua;” and found it’s not
effective in http scope but in server scope .
The same as “proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding identity;” .
Is it a bug ?

BR,

Any proxy_set_header directive on server or location level drops all
inherited proxy_set_header directives.

It’s default behaviour for almost all array-type directives.

The only exception I’m able to remind is access_log, which accepts
special ‘off’ value to reset inherited values.

Yes.

No, any access_log resets inherited logs.

Yes, any proxy_set_header resets inherited proxy_set_header directives
for given server/location.
