Azure Application Gateway has introduced general availability support
for TLS and TCP protocol termination. This enhancement enables you to load
balance and securely process non-HTTP(S) traffic for applications that rely on
TCP or TLS protocols. The gateway terminates the incoming connection at the
proxy and establishes a new connection to the backend servers. The TLS
certificate management is available for both HTTPS and TLS protocols on a
resource, simplifying the certificate operations and providing a single
endpoint for clients.
With this
release, the TLS/TCP proxy also brings support for Client
IP preservation using the PROXY protocol header, as well as support for
port 22 on listeners.
This capability
is available on Application Gateway Standard v2 and WAF v2 SKUs.
