Encryption and Decryption at Load Balancer, Alerts

  1. Does LB decrypt the requests before forwarding them to the servers? If yes, what are the security controls for data which is now in the open between LB and server?
  2. If LB finds out that a particular server is not responding or generating more errors than expected and stops forwarding requests to this server, is there also an alert system to let the respective employees know of the problem?
