Available Packages
Name : sslh
Version : 1.20
Release : 1.el8
Architecture : x86_64
Size : 62 k
Source : sslh-1.20-1.el8.src.rpm
Repository : epel
Summary : Applicative protocol(SSL/SSH) multiplexer
URL : https://github.com/yrutschle/sslh
License : GPLv2
Description : sslh accepts connections on specified ports, and forwards them further
: based on tests performed on the first data packet sent by the remote
: client.
:
: Probes for HTTP, SSL, SSH, OpenVPN, tinc, XMPP are implemented, and
: any other protocol that can be tested using a regular expression, can
: be recognized. A typical use case is to allow serving several services
: on port 443 (e.g. to connect to ssh from inside a corporate firewall,
: which almost never block port 443) while still serving HTTPS on that port.
:
: Hence sslh acts as a protocol multiplexer, or a switchboard. Its name
: comes from its original function to serve SSH and HTTPS on the same port.
