Hello-

 

I am new to Stunnel and have a basic architecture question.

 

I have Stunnel installed on box A where it receives http messages from multiple client processes . Stunnel sends them to box B via https (mutual ssl).

 

We are seeing that Stunnel opens one connection for each client processes.

 

Can we configure Stunnel to have only ONE SSL connection (or a pool of connections) between box A and B and have Stunnel use the open connection for all traffic from various clients ?

We would like to avoid the overhead of SSL-handshake for each new client process.

 

Thanks for the help.
