You have to decide what the proxy is supposed to do if the back-end server 
which it would normally pass requests on to is unable to handle those 
requests.

Yes.  You install what most people would call the "Apache web server" but you 
configure it in such as way that it is a reverse proxy and not an origin server 
(technical term for something that provides its own content in response to 
requests).

Yes, that and a few modules which need to be loaded.  It's all in the 
configuration files.
