# Running behind a reverse proxy
Galene is designed to be directly exposed to the Internet. In order to
run Galene behind a reverse proxy, you might need to make a number of
tweaks to your configuration.
First, you might need to inform Galene of the URL at which users connect
(the reverse proxy's URL) by adding an entry `proxyURL` to your
`data/config.json` file:
{
"proxyURL": "https://galene.example.org/"
}
Second, and depending on your proxy implementation, you might need to
request that the proxy pass WebSocket handshakes to the URL at `ws`; for
example, with Nginx, you will need to say something like the following:
location /ws {
proxy_pass ...;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
}
Finally, in order to avoid TLS termination issues, you may want to run
Galene over plain HTTP instead of HTTPS by using the command-line flag
`-insecure`.
Note that even if you're using a reverse proxy, clients will attempt to
establish direct UDP flows with Galene and direct TCP connections to
Galene's TURN server; see the section on "Configuring your firewall"
above.
# Connectivity issues and ICE Servers
Most connectivity issues are due to an incorrect ICE configuration.
