I have the nginx.conf file shown below.

I want to run both ssh and a webserver on port 443/SSL.
Also known as SSL-port-multiplexing.
At the same time, I want to use ssl-passthrough with SNI.

For ssh-multiplexing, I use $ssl_preread_protocol.
For SSL-SNI-passthrough, I use $ssl_preread_server_name

If I set proxy_pass $upstream;, then ssh works fine, but the webpage(s) don't work.
If I set proxy_pass $name;, then SSL-SNI-passthrough works, but ssh can't be accessed.

How can I combine the two map instructions ? e.g. something like

if $upstream = ssh 
then proxy_pass $upstream
else proxy_pass $name;
endif

The problem is I need a way to combine the protocol-selection with the server_name-selection.

if(ssh) => forward to port 22
else => forward to port xy depending on server_name

Here's my config file:

stream{

    upstream ssh 
    {
        server 127.0.0.1:22;
    }
    
    upstream https_default_backend 
    {
        server 127.0.0.1:443;
    }
    
    upstream daniel_backend 
    {
        server 127.0.0.1:5005;
    }
    
    
    map $ssl_preread_protocol $upstream 
    {
        default ssh;
        "TLSv1.3" https_default_backend;
        "TLSv1.2" https_default_backend;
        "TLSv1.1" https_default_backend;
        "TLSv1" https_default_backend;
    }
    
    
    map $ssl_preread_server_name $name 
    {
        localhost daniel_backend;
        prodesk daniel_backend;
        daniel-steiger.ch daniel_backend;
        www.daniel-steiger.ch daniel_backend;
        default https_default_backend;
    }
    
    
    # SSH and SSL on the same port
    server {
        listen 443;
        
        ssl_preread on;
        #proxy_protocol on;
        
        # proxy_pass $upstream;
        proxy_pass $name;
    }
    
}

Already find the solution?

I also have this problem, and I try this. It seems ok.

stream {

upstream ssh {
    server 127.0.0.1:22;
}

upstream https_default_backend {
    server 127.0.0.1:443;
}

upstream daniel_backend {
    server 127.0.0.1:5005;
}

map $ssl_preread_protocol $upstream {
    "" ssh;
    default $name;
    "TLSv1.3" $name;
    "TLSv1.2" $name;
    "TLSv1.1" $name;
    "TLSv1" $name;
}
    
map $ssl_preread_server_name $name {
    localhost daniel_backend;
    prodesk daniel_backend;
    daniel-steiger.ch daniel_backend;
    www.daniel-steiger.ch daniel_backend;
    default https_default_backend;
}

server {
    listen 443;
    ssl_preread on;
    proxy_pass $upstream;
}
}

  • But I have a problem on HAProxy. If I add ssl cert. in bind, as your example i.e bind *.443 ssl crt /etc/ssl/private/server1.domain.net.pem Both SSL & SSH will not work. – ESingress Nov 03 '21 at 03:55
  • I added my HAproxy.cfg file (see my new answer). The old was partially buggy. Now it works fine, with two different domains + ssh. You don't need the pem-files when you use HAproxy, you can use SNI-passthrough, that works on TCP-level forwarding, which means without HAproxy requiring the SSL-keys. – Quandary Nov 03 '21 at 22:35
  • Does this really work with nginx ? That would be so cool ! If your nginx file works, I'll accept that answer. – Quandary Nov 03 '21 at 22:37

Necromancing.
Answering my own question for the benefit of others.
This is NOT possible with nginx (AFAIK).
You can, however, achive the goal with HAproxy.
The configuration is not quite that easy, so see below the hack that works for me.

Note that I've changed all values with search-and replace (there might be errors) in notepad.
This configuration assumes the following:

If you want to use the proxy-protocol (proxy v2 is newest), uncomment # send-proxy-v2 e.g. the line

server web0 127.0.0.1:8005 # send-proxy-v2

becomes

server web0 127.0.0.1:8005 send-proxy-v2

Note that sni-passthrough reverses the proxy-order.
In nginx, the order is
-> request -> decrypt -> proxy headering decrypted request -> re-encrypt request -> forward
In haproxy SNI-passthough, the order becomes
-> request -> proxy headering encrypted request -> forward

Thus the middleware processing order in your http servers (on port 8000+x)
using nginx is -> SSL-decrypt -> unheader -> process
while using HAproxy, it is -> unheader -> SSL-decrypt -> process

This is due to using sni-passthrough on HAproxy, and using the SSL-keys in nginx (no passthrough). This nastly little fact caused me a lot of head-scratching.

Also note, I set up example.int, foo.int and bar.int in the hosts file resolving to 10.0.0.2 (internal-network IP address of the machine with HAproxy) in the local network for testing purposes. You still see these entries in this haproxy.cfg file

# /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg

# haproxy -c -V -f /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg

# sudo service haproxy configtest

This config forwards all requests for

ssh username@44.33.22.11 -p 443

to 127.0.0.1:22

and all requests for
http://firstname-lastname.com to 127.0.0.1:800X where X = 2n (even)
https://firstname-lastname.com to 127.0.0.1:800X where X = 2n+1 (odd)
(the better idea would have been to use 800X for http and 900X for https)
