AWS - Elastic Load Balancing

AListener protocol HTTPS on port 443 without SSL certificate; target group protocol HTTP on port 80

BListener protocol HTTPS on port 443 with SSL certificate; target group protocol HTTPS on port 443

CListener protocol HTTP on port 80; target group protocol HTTP on port 80

DListener protocol TCP on port 443; target group protocol TCP on port 80

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Configure listener for SSL termination
Listener must be HTTPS on port 443 with SSL certificate to terminate SSL.
Step 2: Configure target group for re-encryption
Target group must use HTTPS on port 443 to re-encrypt traffic to backend.
Final Answer:
Listener protocol HTTPS on port 443 with SSL certificate; target group protocol HTTPS on port 443 -> Option B
Quick Check:
Terminate and re-encrypt = HTTPS listener + HTTPS target [OK]

Quick Trick: Use HTTPS both listener and target for re-encryption [OK]

Common Mistakes:

MISTAKES

Skipping SSL certificate on listener
Using HTTP on target group when re-encryption needed
Confusing TCP with HTTPS protocols
