Hi,

i  read about SNI in opnsense, first i wanted to use ssl-bump. But this is way of administrative overhead for a home network.

how does opnsense handle SNI? Does it just passthrough the information to endusers browser? or does it read "by some magic" the sni-headers sent by the webserver? And what at the end of the day is the real outcome of sni when using a proxy?
