SSL Certificates - Let's Encrypt Auto + 4 Validation Methods

NK fully supports Let's Encrypt + Buypass + auto renewal. Available on all paid plans.

4 validation methods

  • HTTP (http-01) — port 80 direct to local, simple non-CDN case
  • Email (manual) — link sent to registered email, CF proxy irrelevant
  • Email built-in — NK auto-receives and confirms. Requires MX to mx1.host.mw
  • DNS (dns-01) — add CNAME record, or use NK built-in providers (Cloudflare / DNSPod / Namecheap / PowerDNS) with API token to auto-add TXT

Cron auto-renewal

NK scans all certs daily at 04:00. Less than 30 days remaining → auto-renew. Successful renewal also syncs to nodes in the same sync group.

ZeroSSL (Custom only)

plan_custom includes feat_ssl_zerossl: bring your own EAB account, bypass Let's Encrypt rate limits.
