Hi,
I just wanted to mention that I have tested the certificate-forwarding=true on the http-listener but it didn't work. 
Here is the Apache configuration:


{code:java}
   SSLOptions              +StdEnvVars

    RewriteCond %{SSL:SSL_SESSION_ID} (.+)
    RewriteRule . - [E=SESSID:%1]
    RequestHeader set SSL_SESSION_ID %{SESSID}e

    RewriteCond %{SSL:SSL_CLIENT_CERT} (.+)
    RewriteRule . - [E=SSLCERT:%1]
    RequestHeader set SSL_CLIENT_CERT %{SSLCERT}e

    RewriteCond %{SSL:SSL_CIPHER} (.+)
    RewriteRule . - [E=SSLCIP:%1]
    RequestHeader set SSL_CIPHER %{SSLCIP}e
{code}


tcpdump reveals that the SSL_SESSION_ID is correclty received by the application server:

GET /jboss/vault/ HTTP/1.1
Host: 10.110.229.140:9280
Cache-Control: max-age=0
Accept: text/html,application/xhtml+xml,application/xml;q=0.9,image/webp,*/*;q=0.8

SSL_CLIENT_CERT: (null)
SSL_CIPHER: ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-SHA256
X-Forwarded-For: xx.xx.xx.xx
X-Forwarded-Host: xxxxx
X-Forwarded-Server: xxxxx.xxxxx.xxxxxx.it
Connection: Keep-Alive

However the certificate-forwarding seem not able to propagate the https to Undertow as the application (deployed with CONFIDENTIAL in web.xml). Since the connection is unsecure, the application refuses to proceed and issue a redirect to an https fallback address.

> We need to migrate the following EAP 6 configuration from the web subsystem:
> <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:web:2.1" default-virtual-server="default-host" native="false">
>     <connector name="http" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="http"/>
>     <connector name="httpconfidential" protocol="HTTP/1.1" scheme="http" socket-binding="httpsecure" secure="true" enabled="true"/>
>     <virtual-server name="default-host" enable-welcome-root="true">
>         <alias name="localhost"/>
>         <alias name="example.com"/>
>     </virtual-server>
> </subsystem>
> This configuration uses the *secure="true" * attribute to support the transport-guarantee to CONFIDENTIAL which is required by our applications. (We don't use https in EAP which is configured only on the Apache Web server that serves request to EAP 6)
> The configuration has been migrated into EAP 7.0.0 Alpha using the CLI /subsystem=web:migrate command. Although no warnings are shown, the resulting configuration *does not contain the attribute "secure"* :
> <subsystem xmlns="urn:jboss:domain:undertow:3.0">
>     <buffer-cache name="default"/>
>     <server name="default-server">
>         <http-listener name="http" socket-binding="http"/>
>         <http-listener name="httpconfidential" socket-binding="httpsecure"/>
>         <host name="default-host" alias="localhost, example.com">
>             <location name="/" handler="welcome-content"/>
>         </host>
>     </server>
>     <servlet-container name="default">
>         <jsp-config/>
>     </servlet-container>
>     <handlers>
>         <file name="welcome-content" path="${jboss.home.dir}/welcome-content"/>
>     </handlers>
> </subsystem>
> Is there any plan to provide backward compatiblity for the secure attribute in EAP 7 ?
