]

```
This allows the puppet module to create the sections in the configuration file as required. The haproxy service will be restarted after the changes in the configuration file are made.
`haproxy_fqdn` **must**- contain the fqdn of the haproxy **server**- where this should be configured, otherwise the templates are not being populated.
Multiple ACLs need to be added as array, and will create one line each.
## TLS
Haproxy can manage all sorts of proxies including http and https. It also can terminate https requests and send the requests within a private network unencrypted, which is quite common. **This module is NOT managing certificates**, as there are many ways to manage this, including Kubernetes cert-manager, Let's encrypt or other ways.
## SELINUX
All files and directories are configured with correct selinux context. If selinux is disabled, these contexts are ignored.
