Suggestions for multiple servers running port 443 behind OPNsense With a single public ip?

What would be a good option for handling this?

example:

a.domain.com:443 —-> single public ip ——> internal_server1:443

b.domain.com:443 —-> single  public ip ——> internal_server2:443

Can any plugins for OPNsense handle this or would something like nginx/reverse proxy be required? Maybe a layer 7 load balancer like kemp or netscaler etc.

Haproxy can't do this can it?


How can haproxy do this? I see the guide on installing the plugin but how can it allow multiple dns names that point to one public ip to hit multiple servers behind OPNsense using the same port (443)?

you can forward based on the SNI (domain name in TLS) or use TLS offload (HTTPS only to HAProxy).
