How to add 'http-check expect' to HAproxy config in pfSense

KennyMacCormik

Hi,

I'm configuring HAproxy's backend. The idea is to perform http checks against certain page and treat some responses as valid. HAproxy offers 'http-check expect' section to do that, but how can I add this section to the config file generated by pfSense?

My current file (/var/etc/haproxy.cfg)

backend ex-owa-backend_ipvANY
        mode                    http
        id                      100
        log                     global
        stats                   enable
        stats                   uri /haproxy?stats
        stats                   realm .
        balance                 leastconn
        timeout connect         30000
        timeout server          30000
        retries                 3
        option                  httpchk GET /OWA/HealthCheck.htm
        server                  ex1.crpt.local 192.168.60.3:443 id 101 ssl check inter 1000  verify none
        server                  ex2.crpt.local 192.168.60.4:443 id 102 ssl check inter 1000  verify none

I expect it to look like following:

backend ex-owa-backend_ipvANY
        mode                    http
        id                      100
        log                     global
        stats                   enable
        stats                   uri /haproxy?stats
        stats                   realm .
        balance                 leastconn
        timeout connect         30000
        timeout server          30000
        retries                 3
        option                  httpchk GET /OWA/HealthCheck.htm
        ***http-check expect rstatus (2|3)[0-9][0-9]***
        server                  ex1.crpt.local 192.168.60.3:443 id 101 ssl check inter 1000  verify none
        server                  ex2.crpt.local 192.168.60.4:443 id 102 ssl check inter 1000  verify none
