The  LB will be listen on *:80 named "www" - and will send the traffic to the backend named "web",  the * can be changed to a public IP.

SSL Offloading

SSL pem file need to be in the folowing format: (.crt - .key - ca bundle).

reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto:\ https: Adds a HTTP header to the request, indicating to the back-end
application that the original request was over TLS, even though the proxy is connecting to the servers over
plain TCP on port 80.

For SNI-enabled frontends, simply add multiple crt entries, for example:

bind PUBLIC_IP:443 ssl crt /etc/haproxy/ssl/firstdomain.pem crt /etc/haproxy/ssl/seconddomain.pem no-sslv3
