+Tunneling TCP over HTTP
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Envoy also has support for tunneling raw TCP over HTTP CONNECT requests. Find
+below some usage scenarios.
+
+HTTP/2 CONNECT can be used to proxy multiplexed TCP over pre-warmed secure connections and amortize the cost of any TLS
+handshake.
+An example set up proxying SMTP would look something like this:
 
 [SMTP Upstream] --- raw SMTP --- [L2 Envoy]  --- SMTP tunneled over HTTP/2  --- [L1 Envoy]  --- raw SMTP  --- [Client]
 
 Examples of such a set up can be found in the Envoy example config :repo:`directory <configs/>`
-If you run `bazel-bin/source/exe/envoy-static --config-path configs/encapsulate_in_connect.yaml --base-id 1`
+If you run `bazel-bin/source/exe/envoy-static --config-path configs/encapsulate_in_http2_connect.yaml --base-id 1`
 and `bazel-bin/source/exe/envoy-static --config-path  configs/terminate_connect.yaml`
 you will be running two Envoys, the first listening for TCP traffic on port 10000 and encapsulating it in an HTTP/2
 CONNECT request, and the second listening for HTTP/2 on 10001, stripping the CONNECT headers, and forwarding the
 original TCP upstream, in this case to google.com.
+
+HTTP/1.1 CONNECT can be used to have TCP client connecting to its own
+destination passing through an HTTP proxy server (e.g. corporate proxy):
+
+[HTTP Server] --- raw HTTP --- [Upstream HTTP Proxy]  --- HTTP tunneled over HTTP/1.1  --- [Envoy]  --- raw HTTP  --- [HTTP Client]
+
+Examples of such a set up can be found in the Envoy example config :repo:`directory <configs/>`
+If you run `bazel-bin/source/exe/envoy-static --config-path configs/encapsulate_in_http1_connect.yaml --base-id 1`
+you will be running Envoy listening for TCP traffic on port 10000 and encapsulating it in an HTTP/1.1
+CONNECT addressed to an HTTP proxy running on localhost and listenig on port
+10001, having as a final destination host.com on port 443.
