Web server
Domain configuration
DNS records, domain aliases and reverse proxy architecture (frontend Nginx → backend port).
-
DNS A record
At your domain registrar set A record (and AAAA for IPv6) to the server public IP. Verify:
dig +short example.com A dig +short www.example.com A
-
Domain aliases
Add extra domains (e.g. www) in Project settings. The panel includes them in the virtual host when created.
-
Reverse proxy architecture
If reverse proxy is enabled, frontend Nginx listens on 80/443 and forwards traffic to the project internal backend port (Apache or Nginx). Overview is in the Proxy tab.
-
Global reverse proxy
Reverse proxy module in the sidebar is for global frontend Nginx configuration and port management.
TipPorts 80 and 443 must be open in UFW before public access and SSL issuance.
