How to proxy SaltStack behind Nginx

  • 772

By default, when installed, Saltstack uses port 4505 and 4506 to connect with Minions.

But I can't open port 4505 and 4506 on Salt master server. Is there any way we can configure Salt master behind Nginx and have minions to connect master through Nginx.

Thanks in adavance.

  1. You can change the master ports through the configuration file to some ports you are able to open. That way you don't need a proxy at all.

    So these are the steps:

    1. In your master's configuration file set the publish port and the ret port to the desired ones and reload the master;
    2. In you minion's configuration file set the master port to the same port one you set as ret_port in your master
