Host Reverse Proxy configuration

How It Works

When a bench is created and no external reverse proxy is specified in the bench's advanced options:

  • LGF automatically creates a virtual host using the format:
<benchname>.<domain>

DNS Requirements

The generated hostname must be resolvable:

  • External access: Configure DNS with your domain registrar to point the hostname to the host
  • Internal access: Add the hostname to your internal DNS system

Expected Result

  • Benches are accessible using <benchname>.<domain>
  • Reverse proxy routing is automatically handled by the host

Important Notes

  • The base domain must be a valid domain you control
  • DNS must be configured separately for hostname resolution
  • If a reverse proxy is manually configured per bench, this behavior may not apply
