Nginx can act as L3/4 balancer with stream module: [https://www.nginx.com/resources/admin-guide/tcp-load-balancing/][https_www.nginx.com_resources_admin-guide_tcp-load-balancing]

Because SSL still tcp - Nginx can proxy SSL traffic without termination.

Also stream module can terminate SSL traffic, but it's optional.

Example 1: TCP tunnel for IMAP over SSL without SSL termination

stream {
        upstream stream_backend {
            server backend1.example.com:993;
            server backend2.example.com:993;
        }
        server {
            listen 993;
            proxy_pass stream_backend;
        }
    }

In this case, SSL termination processed by backend1/2.

Example 2: TCP tunnel for IMAP with SSL termination.

stream {
        upstream stream_backend {
            server backend1.example.com:443;
            server backend2.example.com:443;
        }
        server {
            listen 993 ssl;
            proxy_pass stream_backend;
            ssl_certificate        /etc/ssl/certs/server.crt;
            ssl_certificate_key    /etc/ssl/certs/server.key;
        }
    }

In this case traffic between nginx and backend1/2 unencrypted (IMAP 443 port used).

Example 3: Receive unencrypted and encrypt it

stream {
        upstream stream_backend {
            server backend1.example.com:993;
            server backend2.example.com:993;
        }
        server {
            listen 443;
            proxy_pass stream_backend;
            proxy_ssl  on;
            proxy_ssl_certificate     /etc/ssl/certs/backend.crt;
            proxy_ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/certs/backend.key;
        }
    }

So, clients connect to our nginx without SSL and this traffic proxed to backend1/2 using SSL encryption.
