Hi!

Is it possible to configure an Nginx reverse proxy in front of OOD? This is because only the Nginx reverse proxy has external access.

Thanks,  
Nícolas

Probably, though I don’t know the exact configuration you’d need. Likely you’d just need to forward all the requests as is without modification, but I’m not exactly sure.

most likely yes, we have whole ood behind haproxy with statement like this

```auto
backend be_ood
  balance roundrobin
  option forwardfor
  server ondemand1 ipv4@ondemand1.phoebe.lan:443 check ssl verify none init-addr last,libc,none

```

I think you’ll need to configure also portal.yml:

```auto
...
servername: your.public.domain.tld
...
proxy_server: your.public.domain.tld
...
port: 443
...

```
