Attila Kanto commented on KNOX-911:
-----------------------------------

[~jeffreyr97], yes this is exactly how Traefik is set up, I tried to explain 
this with the block diagram in the description field.

(Traefik picks up its config from a distributed key-value store and I can scale 
Traefik horizontally, therefore in my current setup I am not worrying about a 
single point of failure, but for the sake of clarity I just refer it as a 
single reverse proxy instance)

> Ability to scope cookies to a given Path

> 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.
