# Plex Nginx Reverse Proxy

This configuration will allow you to serve Plex via Nginx.

## Minimal Requirements

Nginx

Plex:
* Remote Access - Disable
* Network - Custom server access URLs = `https://:443,http://:80`
* Network - Secure connections = Preferred.
* ![#f03c15](https://placehold.it/15/f03c15/000000?text=+) `Note you can force SSL by setting required and not adding the HTTP URL, however some players which do not support HTTPS (e.g: Roku, Playstations, some SmartTVs) will no longer function.`

## Optional Requirements

UFW or other firewall:
* Deny port 32400 externally (Plex still pings over 32400, some clients may use 32400 by mistake despite 443 and 80 being set).
* Note adding `allowLocalhostOnly="1"` to your Preferences.xml, will make Plex only listen on the localhost, achieving the same thing as using a firewall.
