if you use a simple reverse_proxy service
it isn’t https. It will make the connection using good old http. If you use reverse_proxy https://service/
or reverse_proxy service:443
it will be https (443 is the port for https)
This does not mean, that any other device can just intercept the packages. It depends on the routing; your router and switches are smart. They know on which cable a device is and only send it to that cable. If anything else is on that cable, they can intercept this message. Any devices not on that cable can’t.
So if you’re like me and have Caddy and HomeAssistant on the same physical server as virtual machines, you realistically shouldn’t have to worry, as the traffic should never leave your server.
