Load Balancing as a Service (LBaaS) for OpenStack
Go to file
Vlad Gusev ec83c69372 Add support for oslo_middleware http_proxy_to_wsgi
This sets up the HTTPProxyToWSGI middleware in front of Octavia API. The
purpose of this middleware is to set up the request URL correctly in
the case there is a proxy (For instance, a loadbalancer such as HAProxy)
in front of Octavia API.

So, when TLS connections are terminated at the proxy, and one tries to
get the versions from the '/' resource from Octavia API, one will notice
that the protocol is incorrect; It will show 'http' instead of 'https'.
So this middleware handles such cases.

The HTTPProxyToWSGI is off by default and needs to be enabled via a
configuration value.

It can be enabled with the option in octavia.conf:
[oslo_middleware]
enable_proxy_headers_parsing=True

Octavia

Latest Version

Octavia is an operator-grade open source scalable load balancer for use in large OpenStack deployments. It delivers load balancing services on amphorae and provides centralized command and control. Octavia is currently the reference backend for Neutron LBaaS. In the near future, Octavia is likely to become the standard OpenStack LBaaS API endpoint.
