I’ve got Nginx Proxy Manager set up and it’s working wonderfully. However, I have some services I want to be able to access via reverse proxy, so I have SSL and can use a hostname to direct me to a service, but I only want to be able to access them via VPN. My best idea to make this work is to configure access so that only connections from my local network can access certain proxy hosts. This gives all external traffic a 403 on connection attempt. Is this the best or only way to go about it? Short of additional services such as Authelia and Fail2Ban of course, but I wanted to know if I have the right idea.
It’s exactly what I do and works great
