Description

Can you please add server routing based on the Host header?

It is very helpful in terms of routing to custom outbounds using only a single port and a single inbound.

Example:

Client 1

{
  "outbounds": [
    {
      "tag": "proxy",
      "type": "trojan",
      "server": "x.x.x.x",
      "server_port": 443,
      "password": "xxx",
      "tls": {
        "enabled": true,
        "server_name": "speedtest.com",
        "reality": {
          "enabled": true,
          "public_key": "xxx",
          "short_id": "xxx"
        },
        "utls": {
          "enabled": true,
          "fingerprint": "firefox"
        }
      },
      "transport": {
        "type": "httpupgrade",
        "host": "cdn-us.domain.com" <--------------1-----------------
      }
    }
  ]
}

Client 2

{
  "outbounds": [
    {
      "tag": "proxy",
      "type": "trojan",
      "server": "x.x.x.x",
      "server_port": 443,
      "password": "xxx",
      "tls": {
        "enabled": true,
        "server_name": "speedtest.com",
        "reality": {
          "enabled": true,
          "public_key": "xxx",
          "short_id": "xxx"
        },
        "utls": {
          "enabled": true,
          "fingerprint": "firefox"
        }
      },
      "transport": {
        "type": "httpupgrade",
        "host": "cdn-de.domain.com" <--------------2-----------------
      }
    }
  ]
}

Server Config

      "listen_port": 443,
      "users": [
        {
          "name": "user1@test",
          "password": "xxx"
        }
      ],
      "tls": {
        "enabled": true,
        "server_name": "speedtest.com",
        "reality": {

Research direction

Start by tracing how the server transport's HTTPUpgrade host values and route rules are parsed and applied. Compare the two client host values with the server configuration; done means a single inbound can distinguish those hosts and route each to its corresponding outbound.
