===========================
 Nginx Proxy Configuration
===========================

You can use `nginx as a proxy`_ in front of :ref:`munin-httpd`.

This enables you to add `transport layer security`_ and
`http authentication`_ (not included in this example).


Site Configuration
==================

.. index::
   triple: example; munin-httpd; nginx configuration

::

    location /munin/static/ {
        alias /etc/munin/static/;
    }

    location /munin/ {
        proxy_pass http://localhost:4948/;
    }
