In this scenario where do you terminate the SSL?

I agree this could be a workaround if the software supports SSL on non-standard ports. Some people use Plesk or Cpanel for the host management though and I didn't think these tools could handle this complexity. Anyway as you say it's a workaround -- we could do better with a cleaner solution. -kevin > > Regards > > Tamas Monos DDI > +44(0)2034687012 > Chief Technical Office > +44(0)2034687000 > Veber: The Hosting Specialists Fax +44(0)871 522 7057 > http://www.veber.co.uk > > Follow us on Twitter: www.twitter.com/veberhost Follow us on Facebook: > www.facebook.com/veberhost > > -----Original Message----- > From: Kevin Kluge [mailto:kevin.kl...@citrix.com] > Sent: 26 November 2012 19:03 > To: cloudstack-users@incubator.apache.org > Subject: RE: Multiple IP's to one instance > > > > > I am conflicted on this - I know the limitations with adding additional > interfaces. > > I'd almost argue for requiring number of interfaces/IPs to be set at > > machine instantiation and still handing out addresses to all > > interfaces via DHCP, but not all OSes will handle that cleanly. > > As you probably know CS hands out IPs via DHCP to multiple NICs today, and it > is > challenging to work reliably since different guest OS's have different > behavior > with respect to setting/re-setting the default route in DHCP replies.
