SSL Passthrough

The annotation ingress.appscode.com/ssl-passthrough allows to configure TLS termination in the backend and not in haproxy. When set to true, passes TLS connections directly to backend.

If ssl-passthrough is used, HAProxy will use tcp. For more details see here. When ssl-pasthrough is enabled, Voyager automatically converts your HTTP ingress rules to TCP rules.

Please note that following features are not supported when using ssl-pasthrough:

  • Multiple paths for HTTP rules.
  • headerRules and rewriteRules for backends.
  • Specifying TLS for TCP rules. So even if you define spec.tls for your HTTP hosts, it will be ignored.

Voyager will not modify your existing TCP rules. Instead it will cause a validation error if TLS defined for existing TCP rules on same port. In that case, you have to either ensure TCP hosts do not match with spec.tls or, just set noTLS=true for those TCP rules.
