#FAQ
What is an Nginx server block? ▾
A server block (also called a virtual host) is a configuration block in Nginx that defines how to handle requests for a specific domain or IP. It specifies the listen port, server name, root directory, and proxy settings.
How do I set up Nginx as a reverse proxy? ▾
Use the proxy_pass directive to forward requests to a backend server. This generator lets you specify the upstream URL, and it generates the proper proxy headers (X-Real-IP, X-Forwarded-For, X-Forwarded-Proto) automatically.
