Hello, I have a question regarding the usage of a reverse-proxy which is part of a docker network.

I currently use Nginx Proxy Manager as a reverse-proxy for all my services hosted in docker. This works great since I can simply forward using each containers name. I have some services however (e.g. homeassistant) which are hosted separately in a VM or using docker on another device.

Is it possible to use the same reverse-proxy for those services as well? I haven’t found a way to forward to hosts outside of the proxies docker network (except for using the host network setting which I would like to avoid)

    By exposed you basically mean that I can reach them using my browser? I can reach my homeassistant web ui on port 8123 but when I try to forward to that port with the servers IP I get a 400 Bad Request error. I’m not sure if this is caused by nginx being unable to forward or by homeassistant not accepting the connection somehow
