Yes it's possible. ;-) You can run yum -y install haproxy and install 1.5 which is quite old. There is a 1.8 rpm https://github.com/DBezemer/rpm-haproxy but I haven't used it before. Whichever version you use haproxy is by default a reverse proxy. You can start with the default config and yust need to change the server line in the backend section to point to the F5. The documentation https://www.haproxy.org/#docs is good and in the link https://www.haproxy.org/#link section can you find some blog posts how to configure haproxy for your requirements. Due to the fact that your questions are very high level I can't tell your more. >From my experience is the F5 in front of haproxy and not behind, I'm curious why it's in your case different. As you mentionde 7.4 I assume you mean Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.4 which have also a documentation for haproxy and keepalived. The Red Hat people also writes some good documents and it's worth to read, IMHO. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/load_balancer_administration/#ceph_example If you don't use ceph then replace it with your requirements ;-) Hth > Thanks in advance ! > > Regards, > Vinod Best regards aleks
