Howdy,
I am wondering what folks are recommending/using these days for Linux SSL
proxies? I need to build a linux box that basically acts as an SSL offloader
would (like a BigIP / Cisco ACE / Netscaler would do). Listen on port 443,
decrypt the SSL and then forward the request onto the webserver on port 80.
How much traffic? That would be a major consideration....
Check out http://www.apsis.ch/pound/
It would appear the magic search term on google is linux reverse ssl
proxy .... I started searching for linux ssl proxy. That turned up a lot
of stuff for wrapping plain text in encryption, not the other way
around. :)
And yes how much traffic is a major consideration. If a lot, then you
would want to utilize an accelerator card supported by openssl.
