Oracle HTTP Server Modules

mod_certheaders

can be used to instruct Oracle HTTP Server to treat certain

requests as if they were received through HTTPS even though they were
received through HTTP. This is useful when Oracle HTTP Server is front-ended
by a reverse proxy or load balancer, which acts as a termination point for SSL
requests, and forwards the requests to Oracle HTTP Server through HTTPS.

For load balancers, mod_certheaders must be explicitly configured to
determine which requests should be treated as HTTPS requests. To do this, use
the following directive:

SimulateHttps on

SimulateHttps

can be embedded within a virtual host, such as:

<VirtualHost localhost:7777>

SimulateHttps on

.
