# Running headscale behind a reverse proxy
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Running headscale behind a reverse proxy is useful when running multiple applications on the same server, and you want to reuse the same external IP and port - usually tcp/443 for HTTPS.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### WebSockets
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The reverse proxy MUST be configured to support WebSockets, as it is needed for clients running Tailscale v1.30+.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
WebSockets support is required when using the headscale embedded DERP server. In this case, you will also need to expose the UDP port used for STUN (by default, udp/3478). Please check our [config-example.yaml](https://github.com/juanfont/headscale/blob/main/config-example.yaml).
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
### TLS
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
Headscale can be configured not to use TLS, leaving it to the reverse proxy to handle. Add the following configuration values to your headscale config file.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```yaml
 | 
			
		||||
server_url: https://<YOUR_SERVER_NAME> # This should be the FQDN at which headscale will be served
 | 
			
		||||
listen_addr: 0.0.0.0:8080
 | 
			
		||||
metrics_listen_addr: 0.0.0.0:9090
 | 
			
		||||
tls_cert_path: ""
 | 
			
		||||
tls_key_path: ""
 | 
			
		||||
```
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
## nginx
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
The following example configuration can be used in your nginx setup, substituting values as necessary. `<IP:PORT>` should be the IP address and port where headscale is running. In most cases, this will be `http://localhost:8080`.
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
```Nginx
 | 
			
		||||
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
 | 
			
		||||
    default      keep-alive;
 | 
			
		||||
    'websocket'  upgrade;
 | 
			
		||||
    ''           close;
 | 
			
		||||
}
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
server {
 | 
			
		||||
    listen 80;
 | 
			
		||||
	listen [::]:80;
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
	listen 443      ssl http2;
 | 
			
		||||
	listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    server_name <YOUR_SERVER_NAME>;
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    ssl_certificate <PATH_TO_CERT>;
 | 
			
		||||
    ssl_certificate_key <PATH_CERT_KEY>;
 | 
			
		||||
    ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
 | 
			
		||||
 | 
			
		||||
    location / {
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_pass http://<IP:PORT>;

        proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_set_header Host $server_name;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_redirect http:// https://;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_buffering off;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
 | 
			
		||||
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $http_x_forwarded_proto;
 | 
			
		||||
        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15552000; includeSubDomains" always;
 | 
			
		||||
    }
 | 
			
		||||
}
 | 
			
		||||
```
