SSL-proxy list redirection

halldorhg — Thu, 27 Jul 2006 09:15:21 GMT

when I configure an ssl-proxy-list I end up with redirecting the un-encrypted connection to the CSS on a new port.

Example:

ssl-server 1

ssl-server 1 rsakey my_key

ssl-server 1 rsacert my_cert

ssl-server 1 vip address 11.22.33.44

ssl-server 1 cipher rsa-with-rc4-128-md5 11.22.33.44 80

But it seems like if I have to have the un-encrypted port open to the internet in order to it to work, wich might be something I don't want.

Is it possible to have the CSS decrypt the HTTPS connection and then redirect it to a content wich isn't accessible to the internet ?

you can change the port 80 at the end of your cipher.

A lot of people use 81.

However, a user that would try port 81 could still access the un-encrypted content.

If you don't want people accessing the clear text content, you should filter before it gets to the CSS with your firewall or an acl on your gateway.
