ALB mTLS only on selected endpoints

0

Is it currently possible to enable mTLS on Aplication Load Balancer only for selected endpoints and not everything under used domain?

Enabling mTLS selectively for specific endpoints would rely on configuring listener rules that direct traffic based on the request path or host header to different target groups. While the ALB's mTLS feature is designed to authenticate client certificates at the listener level, the specificity of applying mTLS to certain endpoints may need to be managed through application logic or additional proxy layers within your architecture that can inspect and enforce authentication at a more granular level.
