SNIProxy – transparent session based TLS and HTTP proxy

Synopsis

sniproxy [ –c config ] [ –f ] [ –n file-descriptor-limit ] [ –V ]

Description

Proxies incoming HTTP and TLS connections based on the hostname contained in the initial request of the TCP session. This enables HTTPS name-based virtual hosting to separate backend servers without installing the private key on the proxy machine.

Options

-c config

Specify configuration file to use. The default is /etc/sniproxy.conf.

-f

Run in foreground. Do not daemonize or drop privileges.

-n file-descriptor-limit

Specify the maximum file descriptor resource limit. SNIProxy will attempt to set the maximum file descriptor limit to the value specified.

-V

Print the version of SNIProxy and exit.
