That depends on which operating system you are using. By default the mirror of the operating system is used as source.

However, in the case of Debian or RedHat, you can use the developer's mirror as source by setting the parameter $manage_repo = true.

Additionally, you can switch between nginx-stable and nginx-mainline using the $package_source parameter. Just have a look at the respective manifests:

• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-nginx/blob/master/manifests/package/debian.pp
• https://github.com/voxpupuli/puppet-nginx/blob/master/manifests/package/redhat.pp

The mod security need compile for a specific nginx version, mod security is not found in native repos, when nginx upgrade fails the loaded module. Is very important keep a specific verison of nginx when use specials modules like as mod security.
