What’s the proper way to configure Nginx to allow IP:PORT requests like this:
//App is deployed on 8086
http://X.X.X.X:8086/?a=xxx&b=yyy&c=zzz ((http requests))
over TCP or UDP
//Another app is deployed on 5050
http://X.X.X.X:5050/postRequest (http requests)
over TCP or UDP
My nginx.conf
server {
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name _;
root /home/ubuntu/var/www/html;
index index.html index.htm default.html;
access_log /etc/nginx/logs/access.log mycustomformat;
My PM2 have multiple applications deployed I want to access them by <IP>:<PORT>/request
Thanks

Hi there,
If you need to access your applications on
IP:PORT, there is no need to use Nginx. For example, you could start multiple Docker containers on different ports, and access them directly on those ports.Ngnix would come in handy if you want to “hide” the ports, in this case you could setup Nginx as a reverse proxy:

Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
