SSL Reverse Proxy - Dedicated IP needed?

Hello,

When we do reverse proxy for several sites in SSL mode, do we need to allocate dedicated ip for each Binding, which uses different SSL certificate?

Thanks

No, Hiawatha supports Server Name Indication [en.wikipedia.org]. Use the SSLcertFile option inside a VirtualHost section. The SSLcertFile option is still obliged in the Binding section, because it shows Hiawatha the default certificate (when no SSLcertFile option is used in a VirtualHost section).

Thank you, Hugo,

And then how do we set ReverseProxy directive, like this:

ReverseProxy .* https://ip_address:443/ 30

Regards
Andrew

Yes, just like explained in the manual page . The 443 port number is not required, because it's default for HTTPS.
