Topology

Hosts

Manage public hostnames accepted by the data plane.

Goal

Create and maintain hosts—the public names ShieldGate terminates and matches.

Prerequisites

  • Permission proxy.hosts.read / proxy.hosts.write.

Steps

  1. Open Topology → Hosts.
  2. Create or edit a hostname.
  3. Enable only hosts you intend to serve.
  4. Save (auto-publish unless skipped).

Usability notes

  • Hostnames drive SNI certificate selection when HTTPS is enabled on the Proxy.
  • ACME orders must use domains that match enabled hosts.
  • Disable a host to stop matching without deleting history.

Verify

  • Host listed and enabled.
  • Test request with matching Host header reaches a bound route.
