## Obtain an SSL Certificate
|
||||
|
||||
To enable HTTPS access to NetBox, you'll need a valid SSL certificate. You can purchase one from a trusted commercial provider, obtain one for free from [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/getting-started/), or generate your own (although self-signed certificates are generally untrusted). Both the public certificate and private key files need to be installed on your NetBox server in a location that is readable by the `netbox` user.
|
||||
|
||||
The command below can be used to generate a self-signed certificate for testing purposes, however it is strongly recommended to use a certificate from a trusted authority in production. Two files will be created: the public certificate (`netbox.crt`) and the private key (`netbox.key`). The certificate is published to the world, whereas the private key must be kept secret at all times.

```no-highlight

||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Save the contents of the above example in `/etc/apache2/sites-available/netbox.conf`, enable the `proxy` and `proxy_http` modules, and reload Apache:
|
||||
Begin by installing Apache:
|
||||
|
||||
```no-highlight
|
||||
# a2enmod proxy
|
||||
# a2enmod proxy_http
|
||||
# a2enmod headers
|
||||
# apt-get install -y apache2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Next, copy the default configuration file to `/etc/apache2/sites-available/`. Be sure to modify the `ServerName` parameter appropriately.
|
||||
|
||||
```no-highlight
|
||||
# cp /opt/netbox/contrib/apache.conf /etc/apache2/sites-available/netbox.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, ensure that the required Apache modules are enabled, enable the `netbox` site, and reload Apache:
|
||||
|
||||
```no-highlight
|
||||
# a2enmod ssl proxy proxy_http headers
|
||||
# a2ensite netbox
|
||||
# service apache2 restart
|
||||
```

||||
!!! note
|
||||
Certain components of NetBox (such as the display of rack elevation diagrams) rely on the use of embedded objects. Ensure that your HTTP server configuration does not override the `X-Frame-Options` response header set by NetBox.
