Hey @bavarian

This post might help you.

Nginx Config Examples

For those of you who use Nginx as a reverse proxy or load balancer, you may find these configuration files useful: Here’s the example main nginx config I use for load balancing tcp/udp connections:

nginx.conf

user nginx; worker_processes 4; error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn; pid /var/run/nginx.pid; events { worker_connections 1024; } http { include /etc/nginx/mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; log_format main '$remote_addr - $r…

From there you modify the sidecar file

vi /etc/graylog/sidecar/sidecar.yml

Adjust the following.

server_url: “http://graylog_server:9000/api/”

and

server_api_token: " 8v89da5n7cmogkpk_i_eat_ alot_of_beef_vpb4a7muaj4clsn1g9vqr9543ik6kl0seef"
