Hi

I am new to HAproxy so here is the scenario

I have built a 2x Haproxy servers in HA with keepalived. they are working fantastic but my problem i have is this

VIP is xxx.xxx.xxx.10  
app1 is xxx.xxx.xxx.11  
app2 is xxx.xxx.xxx.12

**when we open web servers using VIP, the VIP send traffic to both servers and also translates their original IP address in the web browser and we don’t want that.**

Example Web browser —\> xxx.xxx.xxx.10 —\> xxx.xxx.xxx.11

Here is the configuration

global  
log 127.0.0.1 local0  
log 127.0.0.1 local1 debug  
maxconn 45000 # Total Max Connections.  
daemon  
nbproc 1 # Number of processing cores.  
stats socket /var/run/haproxy.sock mode 600 level admin  
stats timeout 1m  
defaults  
timeout server 86400000  
timeout connect 86400000  
timeout client 86400000  
timeout queue 1000s

listen stats xxx.xxx.xxx.11:9000  
mode http  
stats enable  
stats hide-version  
stats realm Haproxy\ Statistics  
stats uri /stats  
stats auth admin:admin

# [HTTP Site Configuration]

listen http\_web xxx.xxx.xxx.10:80  
mode http  
balance roundrobin # Load Balancing algorithm  
option httpchk  
option forwardfor  
option http-server-close  
server server1 app1:80 weight 1 maxconn 512 check  
server server2 app2:80 weight 1 maxconn 512 check

# [HTTPS Site Configuration]

listen https\_web xxx.xxx.xxx.10:443  
mode tcp  
balance roundrobin # Load Balancing algorithm  
reqadd X-Forwarded-Proto:http  
server server1 app1:443 weight 1 maxconn 512 check  
server server2 app2:443 weight 1 maxconn 512 check

# This is for SQL CLuster

listen sql\_cluster xxx.xxx.xxx.10:3306  
mode tcp  
balance roundrobin # Load Balancing algorithm  
#option httpchk  
#option forwardfor  
server server1 db1:3306 weight 1 maxconn 512 check  
server server2 db2:3306 weight 1 maxconn 512 check  
server server3 db3:3306 weight 1 maxconn 512 check

How to solve that

Thanks
