+<p>It is recommended to put a reverse proxy such as
+<a href="https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_proxy_module.html">nginx</a>,
+<a href="https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy_http.html">Apache</a>,
+<a href="https://caddyserver.com/docs/quick-starts/reverse-proxy">Caddy</a>,
+<a href="https://www.haproxy.org/">HAProxy</a> or
+<a href="https://man.openbsd.org/relayd.8">relayd</a> in front of Synapse. One advantage
+of doing so is that it means that you can expose the default https port
+(443) to Matrix clients without needing to run Synapse with root
+privileges.</p>
+<p>You should configure your reverse proxy to forward requests to <code>/_matrix</code> or
+<code>/_synapse/client</code> to Synapse, and have it set the <code>X-Forwarded-For</code> and
+<code>X-Forwarded-Proto</code> request headers.</p>
+<p>You should remember that Matrix clients and other Matrix servers do not
+necessarily need to connect to your server via the same server name or
+port. Indeed, clients will use port 443 by default, whereas servers default to
+port 8448. Where these are different, we refer to the 'client port' and the
+'federation port'. See <a href="https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/latest#resolving-server-names">the Matrix
+specification</a>
+for more details of the algorithm used for federation connections, and
+<a href="delegate.html">Delegation</a> for instructions on setting up delegation.</p>
+<p><strong>NOTE</strong>: Your reverse proxy must not <code>canonicalise</code> or <code>normalise</code>
+the requested URI in any way (for example, by decoding <code>%xx</code> escapes).
+Beware that Apache <em>will</em> canonicalise URIs unless you specify
+<code>nocanon</code>.</p>
+<p>Let's assume that we expect clients to connect to our server at
+<code>https://matrix.example.com</code>, and other servers to connect at
+<code>https://example.com:8448</code>.  The following sections detail the configuration of
+the reverse proxy and the homeserver.</p>
+<h2 id="homeserver-configuration"><a class="header" href="#homeserver-configuration">Homeserver Configuration</a></h2>
+<p>The HTTP configuration will need to be updated for Synapse to correctly record 
+client IP addresses and generate redirect URLs while behind a reverse proxy. </p>
+<p>In <code>homeserver.yaml</code> set <code>x_forwarded: true</code> in the port 8008 section and 
+consider setting <code>bind_addresses: ['127.0.0.1']</code> so that the server only
+listens to traffic on localhost. (Do not change <code>bind_addresses</code> to <code>127.0.0.1</code> 
+when using a containerized Synapse, as that will prevent it from responding
+to proxied traffic.)</p>

+<p>Synapse exposes a health check endpoint for use by reverse proxies.
+Each configured HTTP listener has a <code>/health</code> endpoint which always returns

+<h2 id="synapse-administration-endpoints"><a class="header" href="#synapse-administration-endpoints">Synapse administration endpoints</a></h2>
+<p>Endpoints for administering your Synapse instance are placed under
