}
http {
    include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    default_type application/octet-stream;
    log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                      '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
                      '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
    access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log  main;
    sendfile        on;
    #tcp_nopush     on;
    keepalive_timeout  65;
    #gzip  on;
    server {
        listen          80 default_server;
        listen          [::]:80 default_server;
        server_name     _;
        root            /usr/share/nginx/html;
        index           index.html;
        location / {
        }
    }

    server {
        listen                       443 ssl http2;
        listen                       [::]:443 ssl http2;
        server_name                  YOUR-SERVER-IP-ADDRESS;
        ssl_certificate             /etc/ssl/certs/server.crt;
        ssl_certificate_key         /etc/ssl/private/server.key;
        ssl_session_cache           shared:SSL:1m;
        ssl_session_timeout         10m;
        ssl_ciphers                 HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
        ssl_prefer_server_ciphers   on;

        location / {
            proxy_pass             http://127.0.0.1:4443;
            proxy_set_header       Host $host;
            proxy_set_header       X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
            proxy_set_header       X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
            proxy_set_header       Upgrade $http_upgrade;
