Finally! DSM can now serve as a reverse proxy server. With this build-in feature it is very easy to configure your NAS as a reversed proxy.
In the past you had to rewrite different apache rules with config files
Take a look at this post to see how to configure reverse proxy on the new DSM 6.
I’ve been using my Synology NAS with HTTPS enabled for a while now but with a self-signed certificate it wasn’t all that secure. Today I decided to try the new feature in DSM 6 Beta 2 for installing a SSL certificate to better secure my NAS. Since the release of DSM 6 Beta 2 Let’s Encrypt is integrated.
With the use of Let’s Encrypt you can now secure your Synology NAS with free SSL certificates from Let’s Encrypt. For more information about Let’s Encrypt go to https://letsencrypt.org/
