The config posted uses "ssl on", which is a valid way to configure 
ssl on all sockets used in a server{} block, see 
http://nginx.org/r/ssl.

While it is recommended to use "listen ... ssl" instead as it 
allows to combine ssl and non-ssl listens in one server{} block, 
it's not something required.
