Load balancing multiple Rathole tunnels with Traefik HTTP and TCP routers
- The article discusses how to load balance multiple Rathole tunnels and home servers using Traefik HTTP and TCP routers.
- It addresses the limitation of needing one VPS per home server by introducing load balancing for traffic distribution.
- The setup requires a working Rathole tunnel setup, multiple home servers, and Traefik HTTP and TCP routers.
- The primary challenge arises from the inability to bind more than one port to ports 80 and 443 simultaneously.
- To resolve this, a tool for load balancing traffic between tunnels, such as Traefik, is introduced.
- The article explains in detail the implementation of Traefik HTTP and TCP routers for load balancing multiple tunnels.
- Traefik is used to route HTTP traffic and handle encrypted HTTPS traffic in passthrough mode.
- The configuration involves defining HTTP routers with HostRegexp() matcher and TCP routers with HostSNIRegexp() matcher.
- Rathole server configurations for 2 HTTP/HTTPS tunnel pairs per home server are detailed in the article.
- The setup aims to enable users to expose multiple home servers in a cost-effective and practical manner.
