Hi Godbach, This means you're running in "tunnel" mode where HAProxy let the client and server discuss together without any interraction but on the first request and answer. So if both the server and client support HTTP keepalive, then HAProxy will let them pass. But not in this mode, many features are not available anymore or won't work as expected. That's why it is usually recommended to turn on the option http-server-close.
