Well, seems that you need to read the manual with the right perspective...

Hi Roman,
I'm trying to pass the proxy protocol to my backend through Nginx when the
traffic is encrypted
This configuration block
listen 8012;
proxy_pass backend;
proxy_protocol on;
allows me to pass a non encrypted traffic and the proxy protocol
This configuration block:
listen 8012 proxy_prot
I'm trying to configure nginx which is behind an haproxy to pass the proxy
protocol over a plain tcp connection. It works well.
When I add ssl to the equation it fails. Below is the nginx configuration
block I'm using.
Is it a configuration issue or might be that it's not at all possible for
nginx
