What is the purpose of redirecting HTTP traffic to HTTPS in an NGINX configuration?

To enforce encrypted connections for all client traffic

To reduce server load by using a simpler protocol

To make the site accessible on port 80 only

To allow both HTTP and HTTPS to be used interchangeably

You are configuring NGINX as a reverse proxy for a legacy application that only supports HTTP. You need to terminate TLS at NGINX and enforce HTTPS for all clients. You also need to support older clients that only support TLS 1.0, but the security team wants to disable TLS 1.0. How should you handle this conflict?

Use a separate server block for older clients with TLS 1.0 enabled, and another for modern clients with TLS 1.2/1.3.

Keep TLS 1.0 enabled to support older clients, and ignore the security team's requirement.

Disable TLS 1.0 as required by the security team, and inform the clients that they must upgrade to a modern browser.

Enable TLS 1.0 only for specific IP addresses using an if directive.
