<br>
By default the certificate validation is turned off (and nginx just uses the ssl for traffic encryption). <br>
If needed you can enable it with proxy_ssl_verify on; ( <a href="http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_proxy_module.html#proxy_ssl_verify" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_proxy_module.html#proxy_ssl_verify</a> )<br>

<br>
If you do the logging on the backend server (and there are multiple virtualhosts) and proxy_pass is via <a href="http://ip" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">http://ip</a>, then you need/have to pass also the Host header.<br>
<br>
Either by passing the Host header from original request:<br>
<br>
proxy_set_header Host $host;<br>
<br>
or you can specify a custom one:<br>
<br>
proxy_set_header Host "some.domain";<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
> Is the above Nginx config, correct way of doing it?.<br>
<br>
Depends on your setup and what you want to achieve.<br>
<br>
<br>
For example if your location blocks match the request on the backend you can omit the URI in the proxy_pass directive:<br>
<br>
location /abc {<br>
proxy_pass <a href="https://1.1.1.1" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">https://1.1.1.1</a>;<br>
}<br>
