How to use server_name with stream NGINX?

Question

Current setup as follows:

stream  {
    server {
        server_name stream.kingdomgame.org; # this line is resulting in an error
        proxy_pass http://localhost:1935;
    }
}

Works just fine without server_name, but I'd like to use a domain if possible.

Answer 1

server_name is used to specify HTTP virtual host name for a server block.

stream module is a TCP stream proxy module, and TCP streams have no concepts of virtual host names.

So, the answer is that you cannot use server_name with stream module.
