How to setup synology reverse proxy to port 443

[marson 0]

Hello

 

As of now I have emby installed on dedicated server and setup reverse proxy to port 443 on it, however since I have 100 Mbps / 100 Mbps fiber connection at home I decided to install emby server on my synology NAS and stream it directly from there, however I have a question, how can I setup reverse proxy to external domain. Below I will describe my current situation.

 

1. I have a public, static IP (185.11.11.11) - fake of course

2. I have registered a domain let's say mymovies.com and parked them on the external DNS (domain name is also fake)

3. I point an A record of mymovies.com to 185.11.11.11

4. my synology NAS has an internal IP of 192.168.1.3

 

So what should I do next to get access to my movies at https://mymovies.com from LAN and from outside of the LAN, let's assume that I will purchase an external SSL and not use let's encrypt, unless it will be easier to configure. I can bought an VPS and setup an reverse proxy under it or I can use synology, I am open to any suggestion. As of now I don't forward any port to the router because I don't know if it will be necessary or not and if yes what port should I expose? 443, 8920 or both?

Hi, yes it is necessary to port the public facing ports to the local ports. The default public https port is 8920.
