That was very helpful. Thank you. It seems that there is some documentation 
is available on configuration parameters but I could not find much on 
aliases. It could be something that you may want to improve in thefuture.

Also, I think I found a bug with https redirect. So, let me describe it 
here and you decide if it is bug or feature. Here it comes.

- my client has his environment in Amazon VPC and I setup scalr instance 
for them with the following configuration:

routing[:endpoint_scheme] = 'https'
routing[:endpoint_host] = 'scalr01.example.com'
proxy[:ssl_enable] = true
proxy[:ssl_redirect] = true
proxy[:ssl_cert_path] = '/etc/ssl/certs/server-chain.pem'
proxy[:ssl_key_path] = '/etc/ssl/private/server-key.pem'
app[:ip_ranges] = ["10.21.0.0/16", "10.16.10.0/23"]
app[:configuration] = {
  :scalr => {
    :ec2 => {
      :instances_connection_policy => 'local',
    }
}

- DNS names for scalr instance are set as follows;

  scalr01.example.com - for internal IP address
  scalr01-ext.example.com - for external IP address

- everything works fine from the local network

- however, they want to have access to scalr web interface from the 
Internet and I opened ports 80 and 443 for them.

- when they access Scalr with https://scalr01-ext.example.com everything 
works fine.

- when they access *http:*//*scalr01-ext*.example.com they get redirected 
to *https*://*scalr01*.example.com, which obviously doesn't work and they 
complain.

I suspect there is a mistake in redirect rules.

So far I closed port 80 on the firewall and told them to always specify 
https:// but they forget and complain anyway. So, I wonder if this is 
something you could fix in the next release or so.

Thanks.
