# Configure Ngnix (optional, advanced)

By default, this playbook installs its own nginx webserver (in a Docker container) which listens on ports 80 and 443.
If that's alright, you can skip this.


## Using Ngnix status

This will serve a statuspage to the hosting machine only. Useful for monitoring software like [longview](https://www.linode.com/docs/platform/longview/longview-app-for-nginx/)

```yaml
matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_nginx_status_enabled: true
```

This will serve the status page under ```matrix.DOMAIN/nginx_status``` 

In default ```matrix_nginx_proxy_nginx_status_enabled``` will add the local ip adress. If you wish to listen to other ip-adresses provide a list:

```yaml
matrix_nginx_proxy_proxy_matrix_nginx_status_allowed_addresses:
- 8.8.8.8
- 1.1.1.1
```
