When using the app netFIELD Apps on hosts that are not running supporting Hilscher's "netFIELD OS" operating system it is up to the end-user to implement an appropriate mechanism to expose the app's web ui port apps' Web UI ports (usually coming without https:// support) in a secure way. The most effective and easy solution is to use an nginx reverse proxy (installable also as a container) as the secure bridge between the internal inner container "bridged" network and the hosts external networkhost's network available from outside. Nginx is able to offer a broad range of security controls that most likely match nearly all end-user needs: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/security-controls/ The overall setup then may look like the following illustration shows.: only a single nginx port needs to be exposed TLS secured as https:// and routes accesses to subordinate application containers
