Streaming using HTTPS secure protocol
If you wish to use HTTPS for your media streaming with Mezzmo server, then you can install NGINX onto your computer to act as a reverse proxy.
Follow these steps:
- Download and install NGINX from http://nginx.org/en/download.html.
- Download a sample config file from http://www.conceiva.com/downloads/nginx_conf_sample.zip.
- Unzip and edit the sample config file. You will need to change the 'server_name' and set the IP address of your Mezzmo server in the config file.
- Copy the config file to the NGINX 'conf' folder. It will overwrite an existing 'conf' file.
- You will need to provide your own certificates for HTTPS. You can create these using any certificate authority (e.g. Let's Encrypt - https://letsencrypt.org).
- Once you have your certificates installed in NGINX, then you can start NGINX by running 'start nginx.exe' from the Windows command line.
- Now you should be able to navigate to your domain using HTTPS and access your Mezzmo server.
