A server is hosting several website each having its own domain name. Nginx is used the reverse proxy.

When a domain name is pointing to the IP of the server and that no server_name is specified nginx serves a default one that matches with the first configuration file.

I want to avoid this behavior and set on my own the default website nginx should serve.

How can I do this? How can a _default server_name server be chosen when the domain name requested is non-existent.

Add the default_server keyword to the listen directive.

server {
listen 80 default_server;
...
}
