Only if you need to run a different reverse proxy for some reason.
So it would be okay to run 1 reverse proxy to manage all of my servers? Even after I add more server VMs down the line?
Yes no problem.
Sometimes you might want to run multiple and put a load-balancer in front, but that is only for more advanced setups.
I use just 1 Traefik instace to manage all my subdomains, certificates, RPs, IP filter, rate limiter...
@Salix Ideally you would put NPM in VM 3, so you have a single entry point separated from everything else.
I just actually moved NPM into a LXC container now and it works great!
There might be specific cases where it makes sense to run multiple reverse proxies, but in general I’d only run one.
