Load balancer with non-standard port
I have a load balancer that is accessed from port 444 instead of the standard 443, so the url is example.com:444
This setup somehow sends requests to the web server with a hostname that is the IP address of the load balancer, unlike another configuration that's working on port 443 and it sends the correct hostname example.com to the web server.
What could be done to report the correct hostname with port 444?

Your NodeBalancer's port configurations can be modified from the Cloud Manager by following the steps listed here in the NodeBalancer documentation:
https://www.linode.com/docs/products/networking/nodebalancers/guides/configure/#add-or-edit-configurations
Additional information on how to configure back-end nodes with your NodeBalancer can be found here:

I hope that helps!
