HAProxy is a proxy, so there is one TCP connection from client to HAProxy, then a new TCP connection is built between HAProxy and backend. Backend server responds to HAProxy, then HAProxy sends that to client.

Hi,
By using a HAProxy as load balancer, the reply to the client is send directly from the server node that processed the request or the reply is send by HAProxy? If the reply is send directly by the server node, do you have any issues by the fact that the MAC address in the response is different than the MAC address that was the request for? E.g. like spoofing issue?

Thanks
