# Reverse proxy

If Shaarli is hosted on a server behind a [reverse proxy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_proxy) (i.e. there is a proxy server between clients and the web server hosting Shaarli), configure it accordingly. See [Reverse proxy](Reverse-proxy.md) configuration. In this example:

- The Shaarli application server exposes port `10080` to the proxy (for example docker container started with `--publish 127.0.0.1:10080:80`).
- The Shaarli application server runs at `127.0.0.1` (container). Replace with the server's IP address if running on a different machine.
- Shaarli's Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) is `shaarli.mydomain.org`.
- No HTTPS is setup on the application server, SSL termination is done at the reverse proxy.

In your [Shaarli configuration](Shaarli-configuration) `data/config.json.php`, add the public IP of your proxy under `security.trusted_proxies`.
