Home Assistant Remote Access using NGINX

Thank you for watching. In this video we will take you through setting up remote access using NGINX. We are using DuckDNS for this but you can use any dynamic DNS service. DuckDNS - duckdns.org Code to be added to configuration.yaml (NGINX): http: use_x_forwarded_for: true trusted_proxies: 172.30.33.0/24 To fix issues with addons using their own web server, such as ESPHome, create a file called nginx_proxy_default_fix_ingress.conf and paste the following in: location /api { proxy_connect_timeout 60; proxy_read_timeout 60; proxy_send_timeout 60; proxy_intercept_errors off; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade; proxy_set_header Host $host:8126; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme; proxy_pass http://homeassistant.local.hass.io:81... } Code to be added to configuration.yaml (ip ban, optional): ip_ban_enabled: true # use this to enable auto IP ban login_attempts_threshold: 3 Please like and subscribe, and click on the notification bell so you can be alerted to new videos.

When browsing to your Home Assistant instance, this is usually - homeassistant.local:8123. If this does not work, try homeassistant:8123. If all else fails, check your router's device listing for the IP address. Once you have an SSL certificate set up, remember to use https: in front of the URL.
