# Nginx Proxy Manager fronting the playbook's integrated Traefik reverse-proxy
|
|
|
|
Similar to standard nginx, [Nginx Proxy Manager](https://nginxproxymanager.com/) provides nginx capabilities but inside a pre-built Docker container. With the ability for managing proxy hosts and automatic SSL certificates via a simple web interface.
|
|
|
|
This page summarizes how to use Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) to front the integrated [Traefik](https://traefik.io/) reverse-proxy webserver.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisite configuration
|
|
|
|
To get started, first follow the [front the integrated reverse-proxy webserver with another reverse-proxy](../../../docs/configuring-playbook-own-webserver.md#fronting-the-integrated-reverse-proxy-webserver-with-another-reverse-proxy) instructions and update your playbook's configuration (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`).
|
|
|
|
If Matrix federation is enabled, then you will need to make changes to [NPM's Docker configuration](https://nginxproxymanager.com/guide/#quick-setup). By default NPM already exposes ports `80` and `443`, but you would also need to **additionally expose the Matrix Federation port** (as it appears on the public side): `8448`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Using Nginx Proxy Manager
|
|
|
|
You'll need to create two proxy hosts in NPM for Matrix web and federation traffic.
|
|
|
|
Open the 'Proxy Hosts' page in the NPM web interface and select `Add Proxy Host`, the first being for Matrix web traffic. Apply the proxys configuration like this:
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
# Details
|
|
# Matrix web proxy config
|
|
Domain Names: matrix.example.com
|
|
Scheme: http
|
|
Forward Hostname/IP: IP-ADDRESS-OF-YOUR-MATRIX
|
|
Forward Port: 81
|
|
|
|
# SSL
|
|
# Either 'Request a new certificate' or select an existing one
|
|
SSL Certificate: matrix.example.com or *.example.com
|
|
Force SSL: true
|
|
HTTP/2 Support: true
|
|
|
|
# Advanced
|
|
Custom Nginx Configuration:
|
|
client_max_body_size 50M;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Again, under the 'Proxy Hosts' page select `Add Proxy Host`, this time for your federation traffic. Apply the proxys configuration like this:
|
|
|
|
```md
|
|
# Details
|
|
# Matrix Federation proxy config
|
|
Domain Names: matrix.example.com:8448
|
|
Scheme: http
|
|
Forward Hostname/IP: IP-ADDRESS-OF-YOUR-MATRIX
|
|
Forward Port: 8449
|
|
|
|
# SSL
|
|
# Either 'Request a new certificate' or select an existing one
|
|
SSL Certificate: matrix.example.com or *.example.com
|
|
Force SSL: true
|
|
HTTP/2 Support: true
|
|
|
|
# Advanced
|
|
# Allows NPM to listen on the federation port
|
|
Custom Nginx Configuration:
|
|
listen 8448 ssl http2;
|
|
client_max_body_size 50M;
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Also note, NPM would need to be configured for whatever other services you are using. For example, you would need to create additional proxy hosts for `element.example.com` or `jitsi.example.com`, which would use the forwarding port `81`.
