Hello,

the root TLS section doesn't have a passthrough option.

Also the passthrough is only for TCP routers.

So [dynamic configuration](https://docs.traefik.io/getting-started/configuration-overview/#the-dynamic-configuration) (config.yaml) should look like that:

```auto
tls:
  stores:
    default:
      defaultCertificate:
        certFile: "/home/matthew/github.com/ampretia/tls-expr/proxy.crt"
        keyFile: "/home/matthew/github.com/ampretia/tls-expr/proxy.key"

http:
  routers:
    Router-1:
      rule: "Host('srv1.localho.st')"
      service: my-service
      tls: {}

  services:
    my-service:
      loadBalancer:
        serversTransport: transport_host
        servers:
          - url: "https://localho.st:9443"

  serversTransports:
    transport_host:
      insecureSkipVerify: true

```

And your [static configuration](https://docs.traefik.io/getting-started/configuration-overview/#the-static-configuration) (traefik.yaml):

```auto
log:
  level: DEBUG

providers:
  file:
    filename: "/home/matthew/github.com/ampretia/tls-expr/traefik/config.yaml"
    watch: true

entryPoints:
  websecure:
    address: ":8443" 

```
