GuideHTTPS

Enable HTTPS in minutes.

Browsers only speak HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 over encrypted connections. Add a certificate and a secure listener, and LiteSpeed takes care of the rest.

Four Steps To HTTPS

01

Get a certificate

Use Let's Encrypt, your control panel's AutoSSL or a commercial certificate.

02

Add a secure listener

Create a listener on port 443 in WebAdmin, or let your control panel do it.

03

Map virtual hosts

Attach each site's certificate and key to the listener.

04

Graceful restart

Apply the change with no downtime — HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 are enabled automatically.

Command line

Free Certificates Over SSH

On a standalone server, Certbot's webroot mode works out of the box. On cPanel, Plesk and DirectAdmin, AutoSSL certificates are picked up automatically.

certbot.shbash
$ certbot certonly --webroot -w /var/www/html -d example.com
$ /usr/local/lsws/bin/lswsctrl restart
