Azure
Application Gateway V2 announces general availability of customer-controlled
backend TLS validations. When the HTTPS protocol is selected in the Backend
Settings of Azure Application Gateway, by default, it performs all validations
in the TLS handshake before successfully establishing a connection with a
backend server. Azure Application Gateway now supports the following
configurable options, giving customers greater flexibility in managing backend
TLS behavior across diverse environments.
- Enable or disable Certificate chain and expiry verification
- Enable or disable SNI verification
With
these new settings, customers can customize TLS validations to align with their
infrastructure needs.
