About this document
Newest version is always kept in: https://apache2-ssloffload-andloadbalance.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/Documentation/ (.odt and .pdf files).
Concept described in this document can be used on every OS, copy-paste to Bash is tested to
work on Ubuntu Maverick (10.10) and Debian Squeeze (6). This solution's copy-paste to
bash does not work with previous Debian (Lenny), because there is no support for
APACHE_CONFDIR.
This document covers SSL offloading and balancing concept + step-by-step manual, how to
implement it. This document does not cover, how to secure Apache2 (conf.d/security,
mod_security etc) or explanations for directives used – please use
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/

Changed header names from

SSL_CLIENT_S_DN to Ssl-Client-S-Dn etc,
because its more conventional and now Tomcat,
what uses Ssl-Client-Verify and Ssl-Client-S-Dn,
is supported for the backend by default.

Description of the idea
SSL offload and balancing.
Not to repeat configuration so much, also to make logic more separated, one Apache2 binary
is ran with two different configurations:
• SSL offloader (In folder: /etc/apache2-ssloffloader) (It takes also HTTP requests from
user)
• Load balancer (In folder: /etc/apache2-balancer)
Listen addresses:
• SSL offloader listens at external IP
• Load balancer listens at 127.0.0.1, only SSL offloader can send request to this address
Requests path steps (abstract example, there are more variables and headers involved):
1. Client opens connection to 80 or 443, sends HTTP request: “GET /something
HTTP/1.0 \n Host: www.example.ee \n SSL_HEADER: h2xx”
2. SSL offloader deletes SSL_HEADER and sets a new one from Apache2 env variable
named SSL_HEADER, adds client info, and with ProxyPass sends request to Load
balancer: “GET /something HTTP/1.0 \n Host: www.example.ee \n SSL_HEADER:
fixed \n X-Forwarded-For: 123.231.123.231”
3. Load balancer sends request to correct backend server
4. Backend server (response to requests)
5. .. and reverse way through the chain back to the client

3.
Why to use this solution
3.1
Upsides
3.1.1
You don't have to repeat configuration in both 443 or 80
1.)
Common
For example, if I want to have RewriteRule from / to /otherurl using ordinary configuration, I
have to define this rule both in :443 and :80 configuration. And the same for all the rules.
(Using Apache's Include directive for common directives would be alternative, but then you
would have 3 files (HTTPS, HTTP and file to be included in both configurations.)
2.)
This solution
Although I have to create:
• SSL offloader Virtualhost
• balancer:// definition
• balancer Virtualhost
(also 3 files), they are more logically separated and can be refactored more easily.
3.1.2
You can have multiple different domains behind one wilcard certificate Virtualho st
(only one IP and port will be used)
1.)
Common
Even if I am using SNI, different Virtualhosts for different domains in different backend
server, have to be created.
2.)
This solution
One wildcard certificate can be used for different backend servers.
3.2
Downsides
3.2.1
Logic differs from conventional Apache2
1.)
Common
One Apache binary is ran with config from /etc/apache2.
2.)
This solution
Two apache proccesses will be running with config from /etc/apache2-ssloffloader and
/etc/apache2-balancer.

SSL offloader and Load balancer
4.1
Description of tasks
4.1.1
SSL offloader's functional tasks
1. Take requests on ports 80 and 443 from clients, SSL VirtualHosts need to be defined
in directory: /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/sites-enabled, certificates are kept in
directory: /etc/certificates-apache2.
2. Clean headers from client sent data (unset SSL_CLIENT_CERT etc); set correct
headers for backend server from env values, so backend server knows if client is
authenticated. Setting headers for backend server is done in file: /etc/apache2ssloffloader/conf.d/ssl_offload_headers
3. Default SSLVerifyClient URL-s for all the hosts is defined in file: /etc/apache2ssloffloader/conf.d/ssl_smartcard_auth_url
4. Forward request to balancer.proxy, proxy configuration is defined in file: /etc/apache2ssloffloader/mods-enabled/proxy.conf and ProxyPass has to be done in VirtualHost
definition for SSL offloader file: /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/sitesenabled/name.of.site.conf
4.1.2
SSL offloader's informative tasks
1. Log requests, logging is defined in file: /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/conf.d/logging
2. Show server status at http://server/ssloffloader-status, defined in file: /etc/apache2ssloffloader/conf.d/serverinfo-status
4.1.3
Load balancer's functional tasks
1. Take requests for port 80, name based virtualhosts are defined in directory:
/etc/apache2-balancer/sites-enabled (I'd recommend use filname format:
domain.subdomain.subdomain.conf)
2. Proxy requests for correct backend node, using balancers configured in directory:
/etc/apache2-balancer/balancers and proxy configured in /etc/apache2-balancer/modsenabled/proxy.conf
4.1.4
Load balancer's informative tasks
1. Log requests, logging is defined in file: /etc/apache2-balancer/conf.d/logging
2. Show server status at http://server/balancer-status, defined in file: /etc/apache2balancer/conf.d/serverinfo-status
3. Show and let configure balancers at http://server/balancer-manager, defined in file:
/etc/apache2-balancer/conf.d/serverinfo-balancermanager
5
4.1.5
Backend server/application's functional tasks
1. Receive request and understand if user has done smartcard authentication: for
apache: /etc/apache2/conf.d/ssl_env_values_from_headers, for weblogic (Client Cert
Proxy Enabled in Console, or “<client-cert-proxy-enabled>” in web.xml)
2. Response
4.2
Install
4.2.1
Preconditions
1. Clean install of Debian, no changes to Apache default configuration files.
4.2.2
Debian Packages
# Install Apache2
apt-get install apache2 libapache2-mod-rpaf
4.2.3
Create base (create two different Apache configurations for one binary)
# Please set correct env value for external IP
LB_EXTERNAL_IP='192.168.0.9'
LB_INTERNAL_IP='127.0.0.1'
# Create host file for our needs (So we can duplicate configurations to other servers, without changing them.)

Configure additional hosts as needed
Configuration procedure examples
4.5.1
Add new backend servers, and domain to be SSL offloaded and load balanced.
1.)
•
Choices
Different IP-s and 443 port for new SSL host (you have to add new IP to server,
configure Listen for new IP, both 80 and 443)
•
Same IP-s, but different port for SSL host
2.)
Steps
1. Only if you need a new VirtualHost with different certificate for that domain: define
new SSL VirtualHost in file: /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/sitesenabled/com.anotherdomain.subdomain.conf from what ProxyPass to balancer.proxy
2. If the balancer is not defined: define new balancer for “anotherwebservers.subnet.kit”
server group in file: /etc/apache2balancer/balancers/kit.subnet.anotherwebservers.conf
15
3. Create new named VirtualHost for “subdomain.anotherdomain.com” in file:
/etc/apache2-balancer/sites-enabled/com.anotherdomain.subdomain.conf
3.)
Configure
# Create another virtualhost for new domain and certificate
cat > /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/sites-enabled/com.anotherdomain.subdomain.conf <<EOF
<VirtualHost ssloffloader.proxy:444>
# + Certificates

SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/certificates-apache2/sites/subdomain.anotherdomain.com.key
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/certificates-apache2/sites/juur-thawte.crt
SSLCACertificateFile /etc/certificates-apache2/ssl.crt/id.crt
</VirtualHost>
EOF
# Create new balancer://
cat > /etc/apache2-balancer/balancers/kit.subnet.anotherwebservers.conf <<EOF

EOF
# Create new balancer

<VirtualHost balancer.proxy:80>
ServerName subdomain.anotherdomain.com
ProxyPass
/
balancer://kit.subnet.anotherwebserver/
</VirtualHost>
EOF
4.)
Testing
1. Change your hosts file and make usual HTTP(S) request (or telnet server 80\n GET /
HTTP/1.0\n Host: subdomain.anotherdomain.com)
4.5.2
1.)
Add a new VirtualHost with sticky-sessions controlled in Load Balancer (can be used
for Apache2, Tomcat, Jboss and Weblogic backends.)
Steps
1. Do as in step 4.5.1 Add new backend servers, and domain to be SSL offloaded and
load balanced. but create different balancer.
2. Create proxy balancer and set route_id's for nodes.
3. Enable mod_headers, if not enabled, and set stickysession name + create rule for
adding cookie with that name and route_id, if it changes. (Route_id is taken from
stickysession_name=sometext.this_value_is_taken. )
16
2.)
Configuration
cat > /etc/apache2-balancer/balancers/kit.subnet.weblogic-app-servers__application.conf <<EOF
Header add Set-Cookie "ROUTEID=.%{BALANCER_WORKER_ROUTE}e; path=/" \
env=BALANCER_ROUTE_CHANGED
<Proxy balancer://kit.subnet.weblogic-app-servers__application>
BalancerMember http://10.0.6.136:7010 route=1
BalancerMember http://10.0.6.136:7010 route=2
ProxySet stickysession=ROUTEID
</Proxy>
EOF
3.)
Testing
1. Order of getting correct routeid from stickysession_name is: 1.) from URL, 2.) from
cookie. That means that you can test solution by going: http://server/?
ROUTEID=.change_id_to_test and see results from https://server/balancer-manager
and https://server/balancer-status
4.5.3
Multiply SSL offloaders and balancers for high availability (active-active mode)
1. You need to have atleast to or more servers running, with same “SSL offloader and
balancer” configuration + boot scripts.
2. Steps to do: do install steps + copy contents of /etc/apache2-ssloffloader/sites-enabled,
/etc/apache2-balancer/balancers and /etc/apache2-balancer/sites-enabled
3. If you have followed logic described in this manual, you only have to change
“ssloffloader.proxy” in /etc/hosts for correct IP.
4.6
Upgrading
4.6.1
OS
Uprading from Debian Squeeze or Ubuntu Maverick to newer should be without
complications and additional steps. It will be tested, and if needed, additional steps will be
added to here.
4.6.2
SSL offloader and Load balancer concept implementation
1. Backup (4.7.1 Backup)
2. Do install steps by this document's manual (4.2 Install)
4.7
Backup and restore
4.7.1
Backup
/etc/*apache2* (apache2-ssloffloader, apache2-balancer, certificates-apache2) must be backed
up regularly.
4.7.2
Restore
Install steps + copy apache2-ssloffloader, apache2-balancer and certificates-apache2 back
up /etc folder.

1.)
Description of steps
1. Install mod_rpaf (so correct env values for client IP are set)
2. From headers set env values

Steps
# Additional nessesary install
apt-get install libapache2-mod-rpaf
# Enable nessesary modules

Weblogic
Configuration for the Weblogic is the same as you would be using mod_weblogic or F5, you
have to set checkbox in Weblogic Console to Client Cert Proxy Enabled, or in deployment's
weblogic.xml enable tag client-cert-proxy-enabled.

Jboss, Tomcat
If SSLoffloader is configured correctly, no additional configuration in Tomcat or Jboss is
needed.

6.1
Configuration recommendations/notes
Apache
1. Keep in mind, that Apache2 configuration is read linearly. (If you first do ProxyPass
and then set some headers or do some cheks, user will be already at proxyed.)
2. In configurations don't use RewriteRule /something /otherthing [QSA,P] or the
webserver will make queries to its DNS resolve, but use [QSA,PT] (passthrough, not
proxy) – also using P flag is security hole through what your internal or other websites
can be attacked (it acts as anonymous proxy).
6.2
Loadbalancing
1. Use sticky sessions if you are not certain, that your applications fully and correctly
support fail over – if one server should die, then only users from that server are
directed to other server. (See also: 4.5.2Add a new VirtualHost with sticky-sessions
controlled in Load Balancer (can be used for Apache2, Tomcat, Jboss and Weblogic
backends.))
2. If your backendserver uses mod-itk (or for some other reason) can't handle multiple
requests in same TCP session to different virtualhosts, use session terminating for that
host. (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.html#proxypass search:
“disablereuse”)

Known problems
•
Currently in multiline texts newlines are replaced with spaces in mod_headers,
because of that SSL_*_CERT will not work. It's expected behavior, because HTTP
headers must be one liners. Its possible to fix the problem by using RewriteMap and
external program, when setting Apache env value in backend server. It is possible to
use SSL_CLIENT_S_DN instead.

Short comparison between mod_weblogic and mod_balancer
stickyness and fail over
9.2.1
Mod_weblogic
(The common use case) to user is sent cookie, SESSIONNAME=RANDOMID!
primary_servers_id!secondary_servers_id from Weblogic server (backend server has to do its
own session replication); if user makes a new request, mod_weblogic gets the value of
primary server from the cookie, checks if it works; if not as fallback secondary is used.

9.2.2
Mod_balancer
Route id for route is set in balancer:// definition, from
SESSIONNAME=RANDOMID.route_id prefered route is got, if route does not answer, next
is chosen. Usually route_id is set from backend server, but its also possible to set it from load
balancer (see: 4.5.2Add a new VirtualHost with sticky-sessions controlled in Load Balancer
(can be used for Apache2, Tomcat, Jboss and Weblogic backends.))

How to create necessary headers setting file in ruby
Note:
•
This is only for Apache, Jboss and Tomcat, and not for Weblogic.
Description:
1. From http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_ssl.html find (SSL-related
variables:) and create env.txt. On each line should be one environment value.
2. In SSL offloader config: Replace all with “Header unset Header-Name”,
'RequestHeader set Ssl-Env-Name "%{SSL_ENV_NAME}s"
env=SSL_ENV_NAME' ,
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_headers.html)
3. In Backend server config: (see: 5Backend server configuration)
Steps:
# UNSET HEADERS (ssloffloader)
print File.new('env.txt').read.split("\n").collect{|env| header=env.downcase.split('_').collect{|e|e.capitalize}.join('-');
"RequestHeader unset " + header}.join("\n")
# SET HEADERS (ssloffloader)
"RequestHeader set "+header+" \"%{"+env+"}s\" env="+env }.join("\n")
# SET ENV VALUES FROM HEADERS (backend server)
print File.new('env.txt').read.split("\n").collect{|env| header=env.downcase.split('_').collect{|e|e.capitalize}.join('-'); "SetEnvIf
#{header} \"(..*)\" #{env}=\\$1" }.join("\n")
# UNSET HEADERS (backend server) (we don't need them any more)
"RequestHeader unset " + header}.join("\n")
