As I prepare to test some changes, I thought I'd set up a maintenance page block so I could do the testing.

Just realized though that the maintenance block examples for nginx take the site down for everyone.

How do you serve the maintenance page to visitors will still allowing localhost access.

Should I just create a new server block listening on another port and deny all, allow 127.0.0.1?
