Hey friends, in this video about the reverse proxy traefik, I'll show you how to configure traefik in the right way to use the dns challenge with cloudflare and issue ssl wildcard certificates with ease!
We just need some configuration for traefik, and some api keys for you dns provider (in my case cloudflare)
With this setup you are able to use wildcard certificates for you domain without opening ports on the host machine, where traefik is running. No http or https ports needed for that.
This can be extremely useful in homelab environments if you don't want or can't expose your ports to the internet, but still want to have certificates for you locally used domains.
