Can the Reverseproxy forward to different Servers by path?
-
Hi,
I´m wondering if the reverseproxy package can so something like this (assuming my network is reachable under sub.domain.com):
surf to sub.domain.com/page1 -> forward internally to server 1
surf to sub.domain.com/page2 -> forward internally to server 2
….I´m sorry, I do not know how to explain that better, but I think you got the point. I´f this isn´t working, what would you suggest me to do, if I have a couple of internal HTTP(S) resources and just one subdomainname available?
Best regards

Varnish is a reverse proxy with cache and can do it for you.
at apache+modsecurity package i didn't find a way.

thanks for your reply. but with modsecurity my webs would be much safer, that´s why I intendet to use it. It seems you´re rather familiar with modsecurity.
what would you do in my situation? tbh, I can make more subdomains, but for the sake of it i just wanted to have one.best regards
//edit: i read through the varnish docs, and saw it cannot handle https, which is cruicial for me (OWA, filetransfer,…)

You can use all:
I've set this scenario some times and it worked very well.
Https -> haproxy –--
|---> apache + modsecurity --> webserver
Http -> varnish ------You can Also set this:
Apache+modsecurity ---> varnish ---> web servers(/test)
|-----> Web servers (/test2)In this case, apache handles ssl.
Notes:
Apache can do what you want but today the package Does not include this option.
May be in a close future I may include this feature to gui.Varnish is faster then apache as a reverse proxy, do a test if you have time.
