## Behind a proxy (TLS, etc.)
|
||||
|
||||
!!! warning
|
||||
If you are running ntfy behind a proxy, you must set the `behind-proxy` flag. Otherwise all visitors are rate limited
|
||||
as if they are one.
|
||||
If you are running ntfy behind a proxy, you must set the `behind-proxy` flag. Otherwise, all visitors are
|
||||
[rate limited](#rate-limiting) as if they are one.
|
||||
|
||||
**Rate limiting:** If you are running ntfy behind a proxy (e.g. nginx, HAproxy or Apache), you should set the `behind-proxy`
|
||||
### Rate limiting
|
||||
If you are running ntfy behind a proxy (e.g. nginx, HAproxy or Apache), you should set the `behind-proxy`
|
||||
flag. This will instruct the [rate limiting](#rate-limiting) logic to use the `X-Forwarded-For` header as the primary
|
||||
identifier for a visitor, as opposed to the remote IP address. If the `behind-proxy` flag is not set, all visitors will
|
||||
be counted as one, because from the perspective of the ntfy server, they all share the proxy's IP address.
|
||||
|
||||
**TLS/SSL:** ntfy supports HTTPS/TLS by setting the `listen-https` [config option](#config-options). However, if you
|
||||
are behind a proxy, it is recommended that TLS/SSL termination is done by the proxy itself.
|
||||
### TLS/SSL
|
||||
ntfy supports HTTPS/TLS by setting the `listen-https` [config option](#config-options). However, if you
|
||||
are behind a proxy, it is recommended that TLS/SSL termination is done by the proxy itself (see below).
|
||||
|
||||
### nginx/Apache2 configs
|
||||
For your convenience, here's a working config that'll help configure things behind a proxy. In this
|
||||
example, ntfy runs on `:13222` and we proxy traffic to it. We also redirect HTTP to HTTPS for GET requests against a topic
|
||||
or the root domain:

During normal usage, you shouldn't encounter this limit at all, and even if you burst a few requests shortly (e.g. when you
|
||||
reconnect after a connection drop), it shouldn't have any effect.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Tuning for scale
|
||||
If you're running ntfy for your home server, you probably don't need to worry about scale at all. In its default config,
|
||||
if it's not behind a proxy, the ntfy server can keep about **as many connections as the open file limit allows**.
|
||||
This limit is typically called `nofile`. Other than that, RAM and CPU are obviously relevant. You may also want to check
|
||||
out [this discussion on Reddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/r9u4ee/how_many_actively_connected_http_clients_can_a_go/).
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on *how you run it*, here are a few limits that are relevant:
|
||||
|
||||
### For systemd services
|
||||
If you're running ntfy in a systemd service (e.g. for .deb/.rpm packages), the main limiting factor is the
|
||||
`LimitNOFILE` setting in the systemd unit. The default open files limit for `ntfy.service` is 10000. You can override it
|
||||
by creating a `/etc/systemd/system/ntfy.service.d/override.conf` file. As far as I can tell, `/etc/security/limits.conf`
|
||||
is not relevant.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "/etc/systemd/system/ntfy.service.d/override.conf"
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Allow 20,000 ntfy connections (and give room for other file handles)
|
||||
[Service]
|
||||
LimitNOFILE=20500
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Outside of systemd
|
||||
If you're running outside systemd, you may want to adjust your `/etc/security/limits.conf` file to
|
||||
increase the `nofile` setting. Here's an example that increases the limit to 5000. You can find out the current setting
|
||||
by running `ulimit -n`, or manually override it temporarily by running `ulimit -n 50000`.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "/etc/security/limits.conf"
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Increase open files limit globally
|
||||
* hard nofile 20500
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Proxy limits (nginx, Apache2)
|
||||
If you are running [behind a proxy](#behind-a-proxy-tls-etc) (e.g. nginx, Apache), the open files limit of the proxy is also
|
||||
relevant. So if your proxy runs inside of systemd, increase the limits in systemd for the proxy. Typically, the proxy
|
||||
open files limit has to be **double the number of how many connections you'd like to support**, because the proxy has
|
||||
to maintain the client connection and the connection to ntfy.
|
||||
|
||||
=== "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf"
|
||||
```
|
||||
events {
|
||||
# Allow 20,000 proxy connections (2x of the desired ntfy connection count;
|
||||
# and give room for other file handles)
|
||||
worker_connections 40500;
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
=== "/etc/systemd/system/nginx.service.d/override.conf"
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Allow 40,000 proxy connections (2x of the desired ntfy connection count;
|
||||
# and give room for other file handles)
|
||||
[Service]
|
||||
LimitNOFILE=40500
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Config options
|
||||
Each config option can be set in the config file `/etc/ntfy/config.yml` (e.g. `listen-http: :80`) or as a
|
||||
CLI option (e.g. `--listen-http :80`. Here's a list of all available options. Alternatively, you can set an environment
