Needing assistance with Nginx 1.17.9 Windows install

[Bryan Townsend]

Hello. I am very new to Nginx and need some assistance with my config. This is on a windows server and will be listening on 80,18080, 443 and 18081. Traffic comes in to www.myserver.com and is passed to my Windows Nginx server by the firewall. I need to be able to listen and pass traffic on both 443 and 18081 for HTTPS traffic. I also need to know how to specify my certificate paths on a windows server so SSL works properly.  The server also listens on port 80 and 18080 for HTTP traffic. I am completely new to Nginx and am quite lost in how this config should be structured.

This is my what i have been able to put together from examples I found on the web  and it doesnt fully work. The way it's supposed to work is that the traffic comes in on 443 for the initial request. The webpage presented to the client then loads a page over 18081 and that is what allows the logon to the webpage. The same happens if traffic comes in over 80. The website replies with a webpage that then loads over 18080.
