Jeffrey E Rodriguez commented on KNOX-911:
-------------------------------------------
I wonder If you can setup sticky sessions in the reverse proxy (e.g. Apache 2 +
mod balancer), a client_1 would be served by Knox 1, and client_2 by Knox 2.
The sticky session is a cookie added by the reverse proxy so the client having
the sticky session cookie will be served by one instance of Knox.
Is load balancing what we are trying to accomplish??
> Ability to scope cookies to a given Path

> Project: Apache Knox
> Issue Type: Wish
> Reporter: Attila Kanto
>
> If there are multiple individual Knox instances behind of a reverse proxy,
> then it would be very useful if the Cookies could be scoped to a given Path.
> If a reverse proxy is put at the font of multiple Knox instances then scoping
> the Cookies to domain is not sufficient since the /gateway1/... and
> /gateway2/... cookies will overwrite each other.

> Proposal:
> Cookies can be scoped with Set-Cookie: Path=/somepath header field.
> It would be very convenient if this scope path could be set in
> gateway-site.xml and Knox would return it in Set-Cookie header field to
> clients.
