HAProxy Enterprise Documentation 1.6r2
Release Notes
HAProxy Enterprise 1.6r2 comprises the following new functionalities:
Backported features from development branch
TCP layer statistics are available in the form of new sample fetches (rtt, rtt variance, retransmits, losses, etc.)
New dst_is_local, src_is_local sample fetches make it easier to take care of locally initiated connections in contrast with remote connections
The peers protocol was updated to version 2.1 with support for synchronization of expiration dates
CLI keyword registration to allow modules to plug-in on the command line and receive actions (for example: refresh now)
SO_REUSEPORT can now be disabled with a new bind directive: noreuseport
New possibilities for accessing load balancer internals with LUA
Idle time in logs is now ignored by default for time measurements so that HTTP request time corresponds to the time elapsed between the first character and the full request. The handshake time is also available to measure the time spent in SSL/PROXY handshakes.
stick-tables now use native types to guarantee better accuracy of tracked information, especially binary keys
Mailers now support a configurable connection timeout
Changing server address, port and checkport is now possible from the CLI
New tcp-request session rule-sets makes it possible to track some L5-only information, for example anything negotiated in the handshake such as SSL DN or the client's IP address as passed by the PROXY protocol. Previously it was needed to do it in tcp-request content rules, which would count one new connection event per request.
New stats field for denied connections and denied sessions
New hash-balance-factor directive for consistent hashing method
New http-response rule track-sc
