I think someone configured your firewall wrongly. That's not just a
device's specific quirk - if someone sold a device that did that
*and*only*that* then they'd go out of business. Fix the
misconfiguration.

Not tested, but should push you in the right direction:

resolver some.internal.resolver.ip;
rewrite ^/proxy/https/jira.internal.example.com/(.*)$ /$1;
proxy_set_header Host jira.internal.example.com;
proxy_pass https://jira.internal.example.com;

But don't do that. Fix your wrongly configured other device.
