Reverse proxy (sub)domains to a different local server wihtout interrupting https
by dr-ing from LinuxQuestions.org on (#541BA)
Hey,
I will try my best to describe my case:
I have 2 almost similar local servers (e.g. 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2, both behind a pfsense firewall) and currently all web traffic (http and https) is directed to the 10.0.0.1 server running Apache2 with multiple vhosts.
These vhosts can be accessed either through a subdomain (e.g. alpha.myserver.net) or through a domain (e.g. beta.net), depending on the customer.
Now I want to move some vhosts (i.e. a few domains and subdomains) to the second server while the domains are still accessible with the same public IP, so I probably need a reverse proxy.
My question now is, is it possible to set up a reverse proxy that acts like a switch and checks the domain name and then decides if it belongs to the 10.0.0.1 or the 10.0.0.2 server without interrupting https?
