# Behind a Proxy { #behind-a-proxy }

In many situations, you would use a **proxy** like Traefik or Nginx in front of your FastAPI app.

These proxies could handle HTTPS certificates and other things.

## Proxy Forwarded Headers { #proxy-forwarded-headers }

# Hinter einem Proxy { #behind-a-proxy }

In vielen Situationen würden Sie einen **Proxy** wie Traefik oder Nginx vor Ihrer FastAPI-App verwenden.

Diese Proxys könnten HTTPS-Zertifikate und andere Dinge handhaben.

## Proxy-<abbr title="weitergeleitete Header">Forwarded-Header</abbr> { #proxy-forwarded-headers }

    Note over Proxy: El proxy añade headers reenviados

    * 이것이 동일한 TLS Termination Proxy가 인증서 갱신 과정까지 처리할 때 매우 유용한 이유 중 하나입니다.
    * 그렇지 않으면 TLS Termination Proxy를 잠시 중지하고, 갱신 프로그램을 시작해 인증서를 획득한 다음, TLS Termination Proxy에 인증서를 설정하고, 다시 TLS Termination Proxy를 재시작해야 할 수도 있습니다. 이는 TLS Termination Proxy가 꺼져 있는 동안 앱(들)을 사용할 수 없으므로 이상적이지 않습니다.

앱을 계속 제공하면서 이 갱신 과정을 처리할 수 있는 것은, 애플리케이션 서버(예: Uvicorn)에서 TLS 인증서를 직접 쓰는 대신 TLS Termination Proxy로 HTTPS를 처리하는 **별도의 시스템**을 두고 싶어지는 주요 이유 중 하나입니다.
