I have traefik up using docker and I am able to connect to some subdomains. All is running on a raspberry. Now I want to add [nas.example.de](http://nas.example.de) and that is a nas connected to my network. What do I have to define to forward the [nas.example.de](http://nas.example.de) to 192.168.1.xxx? For config I use trafik.toml and traefik-dynamic.toml.

web--\>fritzbox--\>raspberry--\>traefik entrypoint:websecure --\>????--\>192.168.1.xxx

Many thanks Frank

Hi @Frank

The easiest way to do this is to add a file provider and define the router and service in that file.  
See:
