Suggested Answer: D 🗳️
When the user has configured Transmission Control Protocol (TCP. or Secure Sockets Layer (SSL. for both front-end and back-end connections of the Elastic
Load Balancer, the load balancer forwards the request to the back-end instances without modifying the request headers unless the proxy header is enabled. SSL does not support sticky sessions. If the user has enabled a proxy protocol it adds the source and destination IP to the header.

to make more clear : A. It is not possible to have the SSL listener both at ELB and back-end instances No. ELB allows frontend and backend listeners. B. ELB will modify headers to add requestor details Yes. When Proxy is placed only. Here the question not mentioned about the proxy. C. ELB will intercept the request to add the cookie details if sticky session is enabled. HTTP/HTTPs will accept sticky sessions, SSL Not. D. ELB will not modify the headers Here the question does not mention that Proxy protocol. Hence this is the right answer. But if ELB Used Proxy and Different protocols from backend and frontend then, it should modify the headers.
