@drewmoseley probably the question is regarding the self-hosted mender, where the current setup doesn’t provide any proxying layer like nginx which the mender-services can sit behind. So the question then can how to integrate a Load-balancer/Proxy layer (like Nginx) that the mender’s docker containers can sit behind along with other services? If so what can be a possible configuration? Here’s a [digram](https://yadi.sk/i/XoEm5LHWp2YgWw) for an overview.
