Domains List

Register a new domain​

You can click on Register New button and fill in the required details to register a new domain.

Delete a domain​

You can click on Delete button to delete a domain.

Note : You can only delete a domain if

  • it is not being used by any application
  • no ingress rules linked to it
  • no redirect rules linked to it

Verify DNS​

You can click on Verify DNS button to verify if domain is correctly pointing to the proxy server.

tip
  • If you are using cloudflare as your DNS provider, it is recommended to use DNS only mode while mapping your domain to the proxy server IP.
  • If you want to use Cloudflare Proxy Mode, go to Domain SSL/TLS Mode section and mark Encryption Mode to Full. After this, all your application hosted on swiftwave should use https protocol in all ingress rules.

Issue SSL Certificate 🛡️​

You can issue a SSL certificate automatically via Let's Encrypt or by manually providing SSL certificate and private key.

  • Issue Automatically via Let's Encrypt

    Swiftwave has Let's Encrypt integration. You can issue a SSL certificate for your domain by clicking on Issue SSL button.

    Issue SSL via Let's Encrypt

    tip

    If you issue SSL certificate via Let's Encrypt, you don't need to worry about renewing your SSL certificate manually. Swiftwave will automatically renew your SSL certificate before it expires.

  • Add Custom SSL Certificate

    • Click on Issue SSL button.

    • Choose Custom SSL Certificate option.

      Add Custom SSL

    • Now, provide your SSL certificate and private key in valid OpenSSL format.

      openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:1024 -keyout key.pem -out cert.pem -sha256 -days 365 -nodes

    • Submit and done !

    • It will take few minutes to apply the changes.

      warning

      You should only use this option

      • if you can't open your server's port 80 and 443 to the internet due to security reasons.
      • Also, you may have purchased SSL certificate from a third party and you want to use it.
      • If you just want to use self-signed certificate, you can go with this option.
