My backend servers are still allowing plaintext logins, and all the proxy connections from the frontends are using plaintext. My frontends have allowplaintext:0. I suppose I could try this in my test environment... Actually, it looks like my test environment has allowplaintext:0 everywhere, and connections from the frontends use PLAIN+TLS. Now I just need to put this in place in my production environment too!
