If you would like to redirect requests for  domain1 com  to  domain2 com   you could create a server block that looks like this   server       listen 80      server name domain1 com      return 301  scheme   domain2 com request uri

Why use the rewrite module if you can do return  Technically speaking  return is part of the rewrite module as you can read here but this snippet is easier to read imho   server       server name   domain com       return 302  scheme   forwarded-domain com      You can also give it a 301 redirect
