Nginx docker IP not a trusted proxy to HA

Configuration
28

This post is gold and extremely helpful.

Before I was getting Bad 400 and 502 errors - all caused by hosting Home Assistant and Nginx on the same device.

A few points to add:

  1. Using the docker networks will disable “network_mode: host” for home assistant.
  2. Disabling host networking will break network discovery on home assistant

I couldn’t poke enough port holes in the container to overcome the problems without network discovery, so ultimately I had to migrate from nginx and certbot containers to swag.
