title: "Cloudflare Proxy"
---
Pangolin works with Cloudflare proxy (orange cloud) enabled, but requires specific configuration:
<Warning>
**Terms of Service**: Enabling Cloudflare proxy binds you to Cloudflare's terms of service as traffic routes through their network.
</Warning>
### SSL Configuration
**Recommended setup:**
1. **Use wildcard certificates** with DNS-01 challenge
2. **Set SSL/TLS mode to Full (Strict)**
3. **Disable port 80** (not needed with wildcard certs)
<Info>
Pangolin will **not work** with Cloudflare's Full or Automatic SSL/TLS modes. Only Full (Strict) mode is supported.
</Info>
### WireGuard Configuration
Since Cloudflare proxy obscures the destination IP, you must explicitly set your VPS IP in the [config file](/self-host/advanced/config-file):
```yaml
gerbil:
base_endpoint: "YOUR_VPS_IP_ADDRESS" # Required with Cloudflare proxy
```
<Steps>
<Step title="Get your VPS IP">
Find your VPS public IP address:
```bash
curl ifconfig.io
```
</Step>
<Step title="Update configuration">
Add the IP to your `config.yml`:
```yaml
gerbil:
base_endpoint: "104.21.16.1" # Replace with your actual IP
```
</Step>
<Step title="Restart services">
Restart Pangolin to apply the changes:
```bash
docker-compose restart
```
</Step>
</Steps>
