Accept all server_name's except empty

Server NGINX
1

Dear all,

How can I set up my nginx configuration file so that it will accept all
request; however it will deny if “host” header is not added?

Also currently I am logging bytes_send per “host” and then take sum of
them with a cron job monthly. Is there a better way to achieve this?

Cheers,
Kaan Yamanyar

server {
server_name “”; # no host header field in request
return 444;
}

server {
server_name _;
…
}

Currently no.
