Reverse Proxy HTTPS - keduncan3 - 2024-05-09

Hello all,

I'm using Jellyfin in Docker on a Synology NAS 920+.

I have a reverse proxy setup using Synology's reverse proxy service. My question is why I can still access Jellyfin through the HTTP port.

Let's use the default ports for simplicity. I have port forwarding setup for 8920 to 8920. Then I have a reverse proxy setup pointing HTTPS 8920 to HTTP 8096. This way I don't have to mess with SSL certs in Jellyfin itself, it just uses my SSL cert I have assigned to my domain.

My question is, why can I still access Jellyfin through MyNas.com:8096 even though port forwarding isn't set up for this port?

Are you able to access port 8096 remotely? Or on the same LAN? If this is all on the same LAN, port forwarding does not apply and having a reverse proxy will not block port 8096 from being directly accessed on LAN.
