Remote access (Secure)

Setting up NGINX

NGINX is like a traffic controller for the internet, making sure requests are handled quickly and efficiently. Compared to Remote access (Insecure) it harder, but much more secure with unlimited bandwidth

Installation

• Download NGINX You should select nginx/Windows-1.27.3 (or any last version)

• Inside download compressed folder, select nginx folder and move it to your desktop

• Open folder -> conf -> open nginx.conf file Replace the file content with the following one

worker_processes  1;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}

http {
    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    sendfile        on;
    keepalive_timeout  65;

    server {
        listen 11111;

        server_name localhost;

        location / {
            allow YOUR_API;
            deny all;
            proxy_pass http://localhost:50071;
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        }
        
        error_log logs/error.log;
        access_log logs/access.log;
    }
}

• Replace YOUR_API with the ip of the machine that you using extension Go to this website, copy IPv4, replace and save! Note: don't forget to add ; symbol at the and of the line if you don't have one
• Get back to nginx folder and launch the NGINXexecutable

• Now you have your url that extension can use: http://YOUR_SERVER_IP:11111

• Open extension -> Settings -> add new connection preset with url above and you are ready!

If you have any problems connecting the extension and BLOOD make sure that if your server has firewall enabled, be sure to add firewall rule for 11111 port To do this you need: - Open Windows Defender Firewall application - Click on Advanced settings -> Inbound rules -> New rule - Select port, keep TCP and select Specific local ports, enter 11111 in input, allow the connection, in the next window keep everything checked and give it a name, like BLOOD
