public DNS A/AAAA records for both application names before requesting the

Public port 80 must reach the container's port 80 for HTTP-01 certificate
renewal. For example, if `HTTP_PORT=8080`, the edge must forward public port 80
to VM port 8080. If IPv6 is published, it must reach this same VM.
The company firewall should provide volumetric DDoS protection and permit only
the required forwarded ports. Nginx supplies the application-edge controls:
unknown HTTP hostnames are dropped, unknown TLS SNI names are rejected,
TLS is restricted to 1.2/1.3, session tickets and version disclosure are
disabled, broker requests and per-address connections are limited, slow-client
timeouts are bounded, Gitea login bursts are throttled, and HSTS plus browser
security headers are returned. Container PID ceilings and Docker log rotation
reduce the impact of local resource exhaustion.
Nginx also runs with a read-only container filesystem and narrowly scoped
temporary filesystems. The broker trusts proxy headers because Nginx is its
only production ingress; Nginx replaces rather than appends client-supplied
forwarding headers.
