Nginx serves as a reverse proxy server and hands incoming requests to Gunicorn.
Gunicorn receives requests from the Nginx server, handles them, returns results to Nginx and then Nginx responses to the requests.

So firstly, you have to configure Nginx to indicate which server (ip:port) Nginx have to hande in requests to. Configuration is like this. Then you have to configure Gunicorn to listen to some port and how to handle requests. Conifguration is like this.
