I’m pretty new to selfhosting and homelabs, and I would appreciate a simple-worded explanation here. Details are always welcome!

So, I have a home network with a dynamic external IP address. I already have my Synology NAS exposed to the Internet with DDNS - this was done using the interface, so didn’t require much technical knowledge.

Now, I would like to add another server (currently testing with Raspberry Pi) in the same LAN that would also be externally reachable, either through a subdomain (preferable), or through specific ports. How do I go about it?

P.S. Apparently, what I’ve tried on the router does work, it’s just that my NAS was sitting in the DMZ. Now it works!

    There’s an issue with that first part. Do I configure it right? Should <domain>:8100 be redirected to 192.168.0.113:81 in this case?

      External 80 to internal 80 and external 443 to internal 443

      With this config you don’t have to deal with ports later, as http is 80, https is 443 by default.

      If you run some container on port 81, you have to deal with that in the reverse proxy, not in the router. E.g. redirect something.domian.tld to 192.168.0.103:81

      If you use docker check out nginxproxymanager, it has a very beginner friendly admin webui. You shouldn’t forward the admin ui’s port, you need to access it only from your lan.
