Thanks for the inputs Florian.
This question is then related to the deployment side. Should I proxy the
nginx server to ejabberd port 5222? If yes, then can somebody point to a
post where this has been explained?
Also wouldn't directly exposing port 5222 to the internet cause security
concerns?
Thanks
