## How it works
Your Geo instance can be used for cloning and fetching projects, in addition to reading any data. This will make working with large repositories over large distances much faster.

When using HTTP or HTTPS proxying, your load balancer must be configured to pass through the `Connection` and `Upgrade` hop-by-hop headers. See the [web terminal](../integration/terminal.md) integration guide for more details.
NOTE:
When using HTTPS protocol for port 443, you will need to add an SSL certificate to the load balancers.

If you wish to terminate SSL at the GitLab application server instead, use TCP protocol.
### LDAP
We recommend that if you use LDAP on your **primary** site, you also set up secondary LDAP servers on each **secondary** site. Otherwise, users will not be able to perform Git operations over HTTP(s) on the **secondary** site using HTTP Basic Authentication. However, Git via SSH and personal access tokens will still work.

NOTE:
It is possible for all **secondary** sites to share an LDAP server, but additional latency can be an issue. Also, consider what LDAP server will be available in a [disaster recovery](disaster_recovery/index.md) scenario if a **secondary** site is promoted to be a **primary** site.

Check for instructions on how to set up replication in your LDAP service. Instructions will be different depending on the software or service used. For example, OpenLDAP provides [these instructions](https://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/replication.html).

This new architecture allows GitLab to be resilient to connectivity issues between the sites. It doesn't matter how long the **secondary** site is disconnected from the **primary** site as it will be able to replay all the events in the correct order and become synchronized with the **primary** site again.
