# Reverse Proxy Setup Guide
It is recommended to run `nostr-rs-relay` behind a reverse proxy such
as `haproxy` or `nginx` to provide TLS termination. A simple example
of an `haproxy` configuration is documented here.

### Notes
### HAProxy Notes
You may experience WebSocket connection problems with Firefox if
HTTP/2 is enabled, for older versions of HAProxy (2.3.x). Either
disable HTTP/2 (`h2`), or upgrade HAProxy.
## Bare-bones Nginx Configuration
Assumptions:
* `Nginx` version is `1.18.0` (other versions not tested).
* Hostname for the relay is `relay.example.com`.
* SSL certificate and key are located at `/etc/letsencrypt/live/relay.example.com/`.
* Relay is running on port `8080`.
```
http {
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name relay.example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/relay.example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/relay.example.com/privkey.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_ciphers HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
keepalive_timeout 70;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
proxy_set_header Host $host;
}
}
}
```
### Nginx Notes
The above configuration was tested on `nginx` `1.18.0` was tested on `Ubuntu 20.04`.
For help installing `nginx` on `Ubuntu`, see [this guide](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-nginx-on-ubuntu-20-04).
For guidance on using `letsencrypt` to obtain a cert on `Ubuntu`, including an `nginx` plugin, see [this post](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-ubuntu-20-04).
