## 🔴 Critical Issues

### 1. Backend Server Connectivity (502 Bad Gateway)

**Status**: ❌ **REQUIRES IMMEDIATE ATTENTION**

**Issue**:
- Domain returns HTTP 502 Bad Gateway
- Origin server (76.53.10.36) cannot connect to backend (192.168.11.211)
- NPMplus proxy is configured but cannot reach backend

**Root Cause Analysis**:
- Backend server IP: `192.168.11.211` (VMID 2101, besu-rpc-core-1)
- NPMplus server IP: `192.168.11.166` (VMID 10233)
- **Network Flow**: 76.53.10.36 → UDM Pro → 192.168.11.166 (NPMplus) → 192.168.11.211 (Backend)
- **Problem**: According to architecture docs, VMID 2101 is a Besu RPC service (ports 8545/8546)
- **Issue**: Nginx may not be running or configured on VMID 2101 for web traffic (port 80)
- Both servers are on same network (192.168.11.0/24), so routing should work
- **Actual Issue**: Backend web server (nginx) may not be running or configured correctly

**Required Actions**:

1. **Verify Network Architecture**:
   - Confirm if origin server (76.53.10.36) is the same as NPMplus server
   - Check if NPMplus is running on the origin server
   - Verify network routing between origin and backend

2. **Update NPMplus Configuration**:
   - If origin server IS the NPMplus server:
     - Backend should be accessible via local network
     - Verify NPMplus can reach 192.168.11.211
   - If origin server is DIFFERENT from NPMplus:
     - Backend IP must be accessible from origin server
     - May need to use public IP or VPN connection

3. **Network Solutions**:
   - **Option A**: Use VPN/tunnel between origin and backend
   - **Option B**: Expose backend on public IP (if appropriate)
   - **Option C**: Run NPMplus on same network as backend
   - **Option D**: Use internal DNS/hostname if on same network

4. **Verify Backend Accessibility**:
   ```bash
   # From origin server, test backend connection
   curl -I http://192.168.11.211/
   
   # Check if backend is on same network
   ping 192.168.11.211
   ```

**Priority**: 🔴 **HIGH** - Blocks all domain access

### 2. HTTPS/SSL Port 443 Not Accessible

**Status**: ❌ **REQUIRES ATTENTION**

**Issue**:
- HTTPS connection times out
- Port 443 not responding
- SSL certificate cannot be verified

**Root Cause Analysis**:
- HTTP (port 80) is accessible
- HTTPS (port 443) is not accessible
- SSL may not be configured or port blocked

**Required Actions**:

1. **Verify SSL Configuration in NPMplus**:
   - Check if SSL is enabled for proxy host
   - Verify SSL certificate is issued
   - Check if port 443 is configured in nginx

2. **Check Firewall Rules**:
   - Ensure port 443 is open on origin server
   - Verify firewall allows HTTPS traffic
   - Check for any port restrictions

3. **Verify SSL Certificate**:
   - Check if Let's Encrypt certificate was issued
   - Verify certificate is valid
   - Check certificate expiration

4. **NPMplus SSL Configuration**:
   ```bash
   # Enable SSL in NPMplus if not enabled
   # Force SSL redirect
   # Configure HTTP/2 support
   ```

**Priority**: 🟡 **MEDIUM** - HTTPS not working, HTTP works

## 🟡 Important Issues

### 3. NPMplus SSL Not Enabled

**Status**: ⚠️ **NEEDS CONFIGURATION**

**Issue**:
- SSL enabled: `false` in NPMplus
- Force SSL: `false`
- Certificate ID: `0` (none)

**Required Actions**:

1. **Enable SSL in NPMplus**:
   - Access NPMplus dashboard
   - Navigate to proxy host for `cross-all.defi-oracle.io`
   - Enable SSL certificate
   - Request Let's Encrypt certificate
   - Enable Force SSL

2. **Configure SSL Settings**:
   - Force SSL: Enable
   - HTTP/2 Support: Enable
   - HSTS: Enable
   - Certificate: Request new (Let's Encrypt)

**Priority**: 🟡 **MEDIUM** - Needed for HTTPS access

### 4. Network Architecture Verification

**Status**: ⚠️ **NEEDS CLARIFICATION**

**Issue**:
- Unclear if origin server (76.53.10.36) is same as NPMplus server
- Network routing between components unclear
- Backend accessibility from origin unknown

**Required Actions**:

1. **Verify Server Locations**:
   - Identify which server is at 76.53.10.36
   - Confirm if NPMplus is on origin server
   - Verify backend server location

2. **Check Network Topology**:
   - Map network connections
   - Verify routing between components
   - Check firewall rules

3. **Test Connectivity**:
   ```bash
   # From origin server (76.53.10.36)
   # Test backend connectivity
   curl -I http://192.168.11.211/
   ping 192.168.11.211
   ```

**Priority**: 🟡 **MEDIUM** - Needed to resolve 502 error
