I confirm that it works also for proxy on TCP mode and that the documentation is confusing. > Even if it is also working in TCP mode and we are not using it in the > configuration, haproxy makes connections with the same client ip port to > another target server. > Can anyone say sth. about client port allocation in haproxy?

To my knowledge, haproxy does not explicitely select the port when connecting to a backend server unless a specific "source" statement is used, so this should be the responsibility of the OS. Have you checked that your ephemeral port range is big enough ? $ sysctl net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range net.ipv4.ip_local_reserved_ports -- Amaury Denoyelle
