Without SSL resume, the client will make the server to generate a new asymetric key. Which takes much more resources than a simple SSL transaction. So it's better to be able to resume if your clients move from one LB to an other one very often ;) cheers

if a SSL server dies, LVS can direct the traffic to another server. Alternatively you can save SSL sessions in memcached for example, to share between SSL servers in the SSL farm. I once stumbled upon a patch for nginx that can do that. Regards, Bar. On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 9:16 PM, Allan Wind

Allan, You need to place a packet load balancer such as LVS in front of haproxy, which directs SSL traffic to an SSL farm (which saves the client IP), and regular HTTP access to haproxy. That's how I understand it at least. Thanks, Bar. On Tue, May 22, 2012 at 6:48 PM, Allan Wind wrote:

I read through the last 6 months of archive and the usual answer for SSL support is put nginx/stunnel/stud in front. This, as far as I can tell, means a single server handling SSL, and this is the what suggest is a non-scalable solution. You can obviously configu
