You could dedicate a virtual host to BigBlueButton, allowing external access to it through a reverse proxy. If your server is running Apache, the following steps are an example of how to set up a working configuration.
1. Install BigBlueButton Docker [as explained above](#install). While running the setup script, please choose `n` when you're asked the following question: `Should an automatic HTTPS Proxy be included? (y/n)`.
> **Note.** The automatic HTTPS Proxy is not needed if you are going to run BigBlueButton behind a reverse proxy; in that case, you should be able to enable SSL for the virtual host you are going to dedicate to BigBlueButton, using Apache features. Please notice that you will not be able to install and use the integrated TURN server, since it requires the automatic HTTPS Proxy to be installed; therefore, if a TURN server is required, you should install and configure it by yourself. You can set BigBlueButton to use a TURN server by uncommenting and adjusting `TURN_SERVER` and `TURN_SECRET` in the `.env` file, which is created after completion of the setup script.
2. Now all the Docker containers should be running. BigBlueButton listens to port 8080. On Apache, create a virtual host by which BigBlueButton will be publicly accessible (in this case, let's assume the following server name for the virtual host: `bbb.example.com`). Enable SSL for the new _https_ virtual host. Make sure that the SSL certificate you will be using is signed by a CA (Certificate Authority). You could generate an SSL certificate for free using Let's Encrypt. It is suggested to add some directives to the _http_ virtual host `bbb.example.com` to redirect all requests to the _https_ one, for example:
