Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/NginxProxyManager/nginx-proxy-manager/issues/24

Some upstream hosts only provide a SSL connection and they are sometimes using self signed certificates (EdgeOS is one such example).

Would be nice to have an option to specify that the upstream is SSL and the nginx proxy would ignore certificate errors because the server should be in control of the user who's creating the reverse proxy.

In most cases this means that the Proxy Host setup requires SSL as well and the added benefit here is that the edge host will be using a certified certificate at all times, regardless of what the upstream host has.

That feature is definetely needed in a bunch of situations. I even considered to produce a pull request concerning this feature. Did you start to implement it ?

Sincerely,

No not yet. I left this note for myself to get to later. Give me a couple of days and I'll see if I have time to put it in quickly.
