The following nginx config allows remote access to a local FritzBox over VPN etc. You explicitly need to set the Host
header to fritz.box
in the proxied request – else, the FritzBox will reject the request as part of its rebind protection.
server { listen 80 default_server; access_log off; error_log off; location / { proxy_pass http://192.168.241.1; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header Host 'fritz.box'; } }
On most linux distributions such as Debian or Ubuntu, install nginx
using sudo apt -y install nginx
or similar and place our config file as /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
.
