      I just tried to add like new service wowza and when visited VM3 with http://192.168.100.3:8088 in the local host i saw see login page, but when i try to access wowza with a set domain name like http://wowza.domain.com:8088 i get this result

      503 Service Unavailable
      No server is available to handle this request.

      when i check with the LISTEN port like this

      root@dev:~# lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN
      systemd     1            root   40u  IPv6 8353844      0t0  TCP *:22 (LISTEN)
      systemd-r  96 systemd-resolve   14u  IPv4 8354932      0t0  TCP 127.0.0.53:53 (LISTEN)
      java      123            root   25u  IPv4 8347558      0t0  TCP *:8088 (LISTEN)
      java      287            root    8u  IPv4 8355219      0t0  TCP *:41183 (LISTEN)
      java      287            root  164u  IPv4 8353064      0t0  TCP *:8087 (LISTEN)
      java      287            root  172u  IPv4 8358134      0t0  TCP *:8083 (LISTEN)
      java      287            root  187u  IPv4 8358172      0t0  TCP *:1935 (LISTEN)
      java      287            root  191u  IPv4 8358176      0t0  TCP *:8086 (LISTEN)
      master    358            root   13u  IPv4 8347603      0t0  TCP 127.0.0.1:25 (LISTEN)
      master    358            root   14u  IPv6 8347604      0t0  TCP [::1]:25 (LISTEN)
      

      I created the same as i did earlier for port 80 and port 443 but is not working.

      I know i need to add SSL, but as i write this is lab testing, not production.

        @sysbitnet said in Can pfsense detect requests and routing to set hostname:

        Dest. Address: web1

        That destination on the WAN would be the WAN address if you don't have any VIPs on it. web1 is an internal IP that could never be reached by an external host.

          Do you maybe know what can be a problem why i get

          503 Service Unavailable
          No server is available to handle this request.

          When i try to use another service like Wowza?

          Port 80,443 its working perfect, but when i wont to add on the same case other port or services i get the same error

          503 Service Unavailable
          No server is available to handle this request.

          Thank you

            I don't know what Wowza is. What exactly have you added? How are you testing it? What do you expect to see?

              Wowza is a video platform with industry-leading technology that delivers quality live and VOD streaming with integrated CMS, analytics, and more.

              But i have the same problem when i try another service, like access on proxmox or any other service who requests another port number but is not port 443 and port 80

              Any time i get
              503 Service Unavailable

                Sounds like HAProxy it not configured to use that port so it just returns that 503 error.

                  I agree with you.

                  How can testing what is the problem only leave this service, for example, i used to test proxmox.

                  Inside Services / HAProxy / Backend

                  Name: PM_8006
                  Mode: active
                  Name: pm
                  Forward to: Address+Port
                  Address: 192.168.100.3
                  Port: 8006
                  Encrypt(SSL): yes
                  SSL checks: yes
                  And in the Health check method set: basic

                  How i configure On the Frontend part.

                  Services / HAProxy / Frontend
                  Name: PM_Front
                  External address
                  Listen address: WAN address (IPv4)
                  Port: 8006
                  SSL Offloading: yes

                  In Access Control lists inside the same
                  Name: pm
                  Expression: Host matches
                  CS: empty
                  Note: empty
                  Value: pm.domain.com

                  In part Actions inside the same

                  Action Use Backend the name that i set on PM_8006
                  Condition acl names: the same name that i set in Access Control lists pm

                  And inside the same Additional certificates select SSL Offloading what i on System / Certificates / Certificates

                  The same certificate and added inside proxmox, because is letsencrypt wildcard certificate

                  And when i try to visit https://pm.domain.com:8006/ the result is like this below message.

                  503 Service Unavailable

                    What do you logged?

                    Do you see states created on port 8006? For both front and back end?

                        I do the same as how i explained in my last post.

                        I tried many other services that request custom ports and got the same.

                            Yes, I set.

                            When i do this just for testing
                            Firewall-NAT-Port-Forward-pm.jpg
                            How can i see if i correctly configured and tried to access it, this is working perfectly.

                            IP_ProxMox is set localhost IP set inside Firewall / Aliases / IP

                            When i disable this Port Forward and now testing to login again like https://pm.domain.com:8006 i get this result

                            If i have a set like this inside HAProxy

                                If you mean on Diagnostics / States / States yes this is what i get as a result.

                                  Ok. So what is the LAB interface? What are the IPs there?

                                  I expect to see a port 8006 state on WAN whilst you're testing.

                                    LAB interface is a local private network, 192.168.100.0./24

                                      Ok so I assume 192.168.100.254 is the LAN interface address.

                                      That state could be the backend on-line check.

                                      If you are trying to connect to it you should also see states on the WAN.

                                          I get this result with a local private network because i use the same IP and for that reason, i get a local IP

                                            Ok so you do see a state open on the WAN. Do you also see a new state open on LAB when that happens? That's what you would expect to see if HAProxy is opening the backend.

                                            If it isn't then it's probably not trying because it thinks the backend is down.
