Accessing the panel by domain

Configure reverse proxy

Once configured, the panel's web interface will be accessible by domain and IP address.

This method is suitable if you plan to host websites on the server.

For Nginx it is possible to customize the panel by domain in the site creation form, pick the option Access in ispmanager by site name.

If Apache + Nginx is used, configure access to the panel by domain in the site creation form, pick the option Access in ispmanager by site name.

If only Apache is used on the server with the panel, please use the instructions below.

Connect to the server with the panel via SSH.
Make sure the mod_proxy and mod_proxy_http extensions are enabled on the server.
Details
For Debian-based systems:
```
apache2ctl -M | grep proxy
```
For RHEL-based systems:
```
httpd -M | grep proxy
```
If the modules are enabled, the output will display the following:
```
proxy_module (shared)
proxy_http_module (shared)
```
If modules are disabled, enable them.
For Debian-based systems:
```
sudo a2enmod proxy
sudo a2enmod proxy_http
```
To enable modules on Debian-based operating systems, add these lines to the Apache configuration file:
/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-proxy.conf
```
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
```
In the panel configuration file /usr/local/mgr5/etc/ispmgr.conf, copy the ForwardedSecret parameter value. If this parameter does not exist or you want to change it, specify your value and copy it. For example:
```
ForwardedSecret password12345
```
Details
ForwardedSecret — a key that ensures ihttpd trusts requests from the proxy server and records the client's real IP address in logs. This key is necessary to protect against client IP address spoofing.
If you specified a new ForwardedSecret parameter at the previous step, save the changes and restart the panel via the console:
```
/usr/local/mgr5/sbin/mgrctl -m ispmgr exit
```
Open the Sites section in the panel's web interface and select the desired site.

Go to Configuration Files section and replace the Apache configuration with the one below:

<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:80>
    ServerName domain
    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [R,L]
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.10.10.10:443>
    ServerName domain
    SSLEngine on
    SSLCertificateFile "/var/www/httpd-cert/username/certificate.crt"
    SSLCertificateKeyFile "/var/www/httpd-cert/username/certificate.key"
    SSLProxyEngine on
    SSLProxyVerify none
    SSLProxyCheckPeerCN off
    SSLProxyCheckPeerName off
    ProxyRequests Off
    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyVia full
    RequestHeader set X-Forwarded-Secret ключ12345
    <proxy *>
        Order deny,allow
        Allow from all
    </proxy>
    ProxyPass / https://10.10.10.10:1500/
    ProxyPassReverse / https://10.10.10.10:1500/
</VirtualHost>

Details

10.10.10.10.10 — IP address of your server
Domain — the domain which the panel will be accessible at after configuration
Username — the name of the user who owns the site
Certificate — the name of the SSL certificate for the site
Password12345 — ForwardedSecret installed

Restart the server via the console:

For Debian-based operating systems:

systemctl restart apache2

For RHEL-based operating systems:

systemctl restart httpd

Go to Configuration Files section and replace the OpenLiteSpeed configuration with the one below:

virtualHost domain {
	vhDomain domain

	docRoot /var/www/username/data/www/domain

Configuring ihttpd

Once configured, the panel's web interface will be accessible by domain and inaccessible by IP address.

This method is suitable if the server is not planned to host websites and run web applications (Roundcube, phpMyAdmin, phpPgAdmin, Softaculous).

Issue an SSL certificate for the panel. Specify the domain that will be used to access the panel.

In the configuration file /usr/local/mgr5/etc/ihttpd.conf, change the web server ports to 80 and 443:

listen {
       ip 10.10.10.10
       port 443
}       
listen {
       ip 10.10.10.10
       port 80
       redirect
}
        sni {
                domain_cert etc/manager.crt
                domain_key etc/manager.key
                domains domain
        }
