haproxy/examples/basic-config-edge.cfg

# This configuration creates a classical reverse-proxy and load balancer for
# public services. It presents ports 80 and 443 (with 80 redirecting to 443),
# enables caching up to one hour, and load-balances the service on a farm of
# 4 servers on private IP addresses which are checked using HTTP checks and
# by maintaining stickiness via session cookies. It offloads TLS processing
# and enables HTTP compression. It uses HAProxy 2.4.
