# Home Assistant Add-on: NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy
## Installation
Follow these steps to get the add-on installed on your system:
1. Navigate in your Home Assistant frontend to **Supervisor** -> **Add-on Store**.
2. Find the "NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy" add-on and click it.
3. Click on the "INSTALL" button.
## How to use
The NGINX Proxy add-on is commonly used in conjunction with the [Duck DNS](https://github.com/home-assistant/hassio-addons/tree/master/duckdns) add-on to set up secure remote access to your Home Assistant instance. The following instructions covers this scenario.
1. The certificate to your registered domain should already be created via the [Duck DNS](https://github.com/home-assistant/hassio-addons/tree/master/duckdns) add-on or another method. Make sure that the certificate files exist in the `/ssl` directory.
2. In the `configuration.yaml` file, some options in the `http:` section are no longer necessary for this scenario, and should be commented out or removed:
- `ssl_certificate`
- `ssl_key`
- `server_port`
3. Change the `domain` option to the domain name you registered (from DuckDNS or any other domain you control).
4. Leave all other options as-is.
5. Save configuration.
6. Start the add-on.
7. Have some patience and wait a couple of minutes.
8. Check the add-on log output to see the result.
## Configuration
Add-on configuration:
```yaml
domain: home.example.com
certfile: fullchain.pem
keyfile: privkey.pem
hsts: "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains"
customize:
active: false
default: "nginx_proxy_default*.conf"
servers: "nginx_proxy/*.conf"
cloudflare: false
```
### Option: `domain` (required)
The domain name to use for the proxy.
### Option: `certfile` (required)
The certificate file to use in the `/ssl` directory. Keep filename as-is if you used default settings to create the certificate with the [Duck DNS](https://github.com/home-assistant/hassio-addons/tree/master/duckdns) add-on.
### Option: `keyfile` (required)
Private key file to use in the `/ssl` directory.
### Option: `hsts` (required)
Value for the [`Strict-Transport-Security`][hsts] HTTP header to send. If empty, the header is not sent.
### Option `customize.active` (required)
If true, additional NGINX configuration files for the default server and additional servers are read from files in the `/share` directory specified by the `default` and `servers` variables.
### Option `customize.default` (required)
The filename of the NGINX configuration for the default server, found in the `/share` directory.
### Option `customize.servers` (required)
The filename(s) of the NGINX configuration for the additional servers, found in the `/share` directory.
### Option `cloudflare` (optional)
If enabled, configure Nginx with a list of IP addresses directly from Cloudflare that will be used for `set_real_ip_from` directive Nginx config.
This is so the `ip_ban_enabled` feature can be used and work correctly in /config/customize.yaml.
## Known issues and limitations
- By default, port 80 is disabled in the add-on configuration in case the port is needed for other components or add-ons like `emulated_hue`.
