Synology How to Allow Reactive Resume to Work Over an HTTPS Connection

Have you already installed Reactive Resume using docker on your Synology NAS following my step by step guide? Do you want to log in via HTTPS using your custom domain name even when you are away from home? It’s simple and free. You don’t need to buy domains, you don’t need to look for information elsewhere because here you will find the easy way to do it. Say you’re at a friend’s house and want to see your Reactive Resume. You can access Reactive Resume from outside your home, just like you would any website.

Note: The guide below is deprecated – Check the new guide here: How to Run Docker Containers Over HTTPS

  • STEP 2

Follow my step by step guide on how to activate your synology.me DDNS on DSM 7
Follow my step by step guide on how to activate your synology.me DDNS on DSM 6.2.4
Note: If you already own a synology.me DDNS, skip this STEP.

  • STEP 3

Go to Control Panel / Application Portal / Reverse Proxy. Click on Create. Follow the instructions in the image below.

1 Synology Docker allow Reactive Resume to work over an https connection

  • STEP 4

After you click the create button the window below will open. Follow the instructions in the image below.

On General area set the Reverse Proxy Description and type in Reactive Resume. After that, add the following instructions:

Source:
Protocol: HTTPS
Hostname: yourname.synology.me
Port: 5053

Check Enable HTTP/2

Destination:
Protocol: HTTP
Hostname: localhost
Port: 5050

2 Synology Docker allow Reactive Resume to work over an https connection

  • STEP 5

Go to Control Panel / Security / Certificate and check if your link yourname.synologyme:5053 is visible.

3 Synology Docker allow Reactive Resume to work over an https connection

  • STEP 6

Log into your router and go to the Port Forwarding area. Select your NAS Local IP Address and port forward port 5053 both TCP/UDP. Remember that every router has its own interface design. At the moment I am using a RT2600ac router. Follow the instructions in the image below.

4 Synology Docker allow Reactive Resume to work over an https connection

  • STEP 7

Go back to STEP 1 or you will deal with karma 🙂

  • STEP 8

Open your browser and type in https://yourname.synology.me:5053 and you will see the HTTPS / SSL certificate working correctly. From now on you can access your Reactive Resume application over HTTPS from anywhere.

5 Synology Docker allow Reactive Resume to work over an https connection

Note: If you don’t like to see port :5053 at the end of your link take a look at my new article HTTPS-SSL to Your Docker Containers Without Port at The End

Note: You can use the same operation described above for all docker packages you have previously installed on your Synology NAS to access them via HTTPS/SSL.
Note: At STEP 4, instead of port 5053 you can use the port of your choice, but remember to port forward it (correctly) in your router following STEP 6.
