That sounds like a really practical setup! Exposing ports 80 and 443 through the Omada OC200 for hosting an Nginx reverse proxy is a smart approach, especially if you're self hosting web services on your local network. It provides a clean way to route external traffic securely to internal services. Just make sure you've got proper firewall rules and SSL certificates in place to keep everything secure. If you've already set this up successfully, sharing more details would be awesome it could really help others looking to do something similar.

Im glad you resolved your issue (its usually something simple like a typo!)

 

I am curious about something, you were saying that if you were redirecting 443 it always resulted in forwarding to your controller?   I dont see how this can be if you dont have a port forward specifically for that.  By default, nothing is forwarded anywhere and you are free to forward any port to any IP that you want.

 

Do you have any remote sites that your OC200 is also controlling?

Main: ER8411 x1, SG3428X x1, SG3452 x1, SG2428LP x1, SG3210 x1, SG2218P x1, SG2008P x3, ES208G x1, EAP650 x6 Remote: ER7206 v2 x1, ER605 v2 x3, SG2008P x2, EAP650 x2, ES205G x1 Controller: OC300
