HTTP2 error for TCP router with TLS

Hi!
I have an IngressRouteTCP configured for Traefik running in an AKS cluster (behind an Azure load balancer). I'm trying to do routing based on SNI, rather than on the hostname header. The certificate used is generated by Cloudflare for test.example.com.

As you can see below, it doesn't work. What does work, is setting a TLSOption with alpnProtocols to http/1.1. But that would default to http/1 as I understand it. My application supports http2, so I'd prefer to use that.

I'm not sure why it fails? Is it Traefik, curl or my application?

Testing it with curl -svk --connect-to test.example.com:443:my-azure-load-balancer.cloudapp.azure.com:443 https://test.example.com gives this:

I'm using Traefik 2.9.1.

This is my Kubernetes configuration

apiVersion: apps/v1

      services:

          port: 80
  tls:
    secretName: cloudflare-cert

These are the only logs related to this that I can find in the logs (the second log line doesn't always come though):

traefik-c757597b9-2xv65 time="2022-10-31T08:52:59Z" level=debug msg="Handling connection from 10.9.3.227:61988 to 10.9.3.73:80"
traefik-c757597b9-2xv65 time="2022-10-31T08:52:59Z" level=debug msg="Error during connection: read tcp 10.9.3.58:34400->10.9.3.73:80: read: connection reset by peer"

Those IPs are:
10.9.3.227 - The Kubernetes node
10.9.3.58 - Traefik
10.9.3.73 - The service for the whoami pod

I initially tested this behind Cloudflare, and received this:

I thought it might have been an issue with Traefik, so I created an issue here: HTTP2 error for TCP router with TLS · Issue #9484 · traefik/traefik · GitHub. But it was closed.

I'm really grateful for any input! :smile:

Have you tried setting Traefik log level to debug?

Hi!
I have, yes. The only logs related to this are the logs I included. I guess it’s because it’s TCP routing that there aren’t more logs maybe? :person_shrugging:

Hey @bluepuma77 , do you have any more suggestions? :blush:

Sorry, no experience with any parts of your stack: tcp entrypoint, k8s, cloudflare
