      So I have been using pfsense for about a year now.  My server has grown a bit.  I run apache to serve up webpages and have exposed ports for various other tools I regularly use.  So for example jenkins has its own webserver which runs on port 8080.

      I use apache to redirect http to https on my server.  And I want to setup squid to server up all my webservers as https with nice endpoints.  Instead of https://myserver.com:8080, I want https://myserver.com/jenkins to redirect to to 8080.

      Nothing is easy in apache, so I'm looking at squid, but getting confused about reverse proxy vs transparent proxy.  I understand the difference, but pfsense keeps complaining that I need to enable squid proxy.

      Any pointers of what the right direction is?

      Thanks,

      Dan

        Little bit more.

        I'd like squid to do this.

        http port 80 redirect to https 443 and serve up https pages.  On the backend I want to use simple http and squid do all the encrypting.
