You can actually can run H/2 through HAProxy, using ALPN to determine if
the client understands H/2 I have the following (snippet of a) config that
sends to different nginx ports based on the ALPN response.

frontend https
mode tcp
bind 0.0.0.0:443 ssl crt /etc/haproxy/certs alpn h2,http/1.1 ecdhe
secp384r1
http-response set-header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=16000000;
includeSubDomains; preload;"
timeout http-request 10s
#send all HTTP/2 traffic to a specific backend
use_backend http2-nodes if { ssl_fc_alpn -i h2 }
#send HTTP/1.1 and HTTP/1.0 to default, which don't speak HTTP/2
default_backend http1-nodes

backend http1-nodes
mode http
balance roundrobin
default-server inter 1s fall 2

server web01 10.1.1.12:80 check send-proxy
server web03 10.1.1.14:80 check send-proxy

backend http2-nodes
mode tcp
balance roundrobin
default-server inter 1s fall 2

server web01 10.1.1.12:81 check send-proxy
server web03 10.1.1.14:81 check send-proxy

Sounds like you may not want to complicate this system ATM, but just
throwing it out there. It's worked really well for me, i have had i live
for about a year.
