Configuring ARR to Support SSL Offloading
To configure ARR to support SSL offloading:

Open the ARR server farm and double-click Routing Rules.
Make sure the Enable SSL offloading check box is selected.
- Repeat steps 1-3 with all the ARR machines.
Recommendations
- Use Centralized SSL Certificate to share the same customer certificate between all ARR machines. For more information, see http://www.iis.net/learn/get-started/whats-new-in-iis-8/iis-80-centralized-ssl-certificate-support-ssl-scalability-and-manageability
- Use IIS Shared Configuration to share the IIS configuration between the servers. For more information, see http://www.iis.net/learn/manage/managing-your-configuration-settings/shared-configuration_264
- Use URL rewrite to redirect users from http to https. For more information, see http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/url-rewrite
