the url seem could not match /dev\_tools/ when I click dev tool menu, when I change "/dev\_tools/" to "/", it's could transfer port 80 to 5601.

Hey @wenchaodu, I assume that you're looking at blocking access to dev tools using NGINX to do so, have you looked into using [https://www.elastic.co/blog/introducing-kibana-feature-controls-curating-and-securing-feature-access](https://www.elastic.co/blog/introducing-kibana-feature-controls-curating-and-securing-feature-access) to do so instead? It's a much more comprehensive solution.
