About

mod_aclr2 is an Apache web server module that automates serving static content with NGINX as a reverse proxy.

It works by intercepting static file responses in Apache, adding the internal X-Accel-Redirect header, and handing the request back to NGINX for direct file delivery while dynamic requests continue to be processed by Apache.

mod_ssl provides SSL v3 and TLS v1.x support for the Apache HTTP Server.
