The parameters you need to pay attention to are as follows:
- **EXTERNAL_IP**: The server's public IP, corresponding to the **Server Address** in the CrossDesk client **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
**Parameters**
- **EXTERNAL_IP**: The servers public IP. This corresponds to **Server Address** in the CrossDesk clients **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
- **INTERNAL_IP**: The servers internal IP.
- **CROSSDESK_SERVER_PORT**: The port used by the self-hosted service. This corresponds to **Server Port** in the CrossDesk clients **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
- **COTURN_PORT**: The port used by the COTURN service. This corresponds to **Relay Service Port** in the CrossDesk clients **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
- **MIN_PORT / MAX_PORT**: The port range used by the COTURN service. Example: `MIN_PORT=50000`, `MAX_PORT=60000`. Adjust the range depending on the number of clients.
- `-v /var/lib/crossdesk:/var/lib/crossdesk`: Persists database and certificate files on the host machine.
- `-v /var/log/crossdesk:/var/log/crossdesk`: Persists log files on the host machine.
- **INTERNAL_IP**: The server's internal IP.
**Notes**
- **The server must open the following ports: 3478/udp, 3478/tcp, MIN_PORTMAX_PORT/udp, and CROSSDESK_SERVER_PORT/tcp.**
- If you dont mount volumes, all data will be lost when the container is removed.
- Certificate files will be automatically generated on first startup and persisted to the host at `/var/lib/crossdesk/certs`.
- The database file will be automatically created and stored at `/var/lib/crossdesk/db/crossdesk-server.db`.
- Log files will be created and stored at `/var/log/crossdesk/`.
- **CROSSDESK_SERVER_PORT**: The port used by the self-hosted server, corresponding to the **Server Port** in the CrossDesk client **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
**Permission Notice**
If the directories automatically created by Docker belong to root and have insufficient write permissions, the container user may not be able to write to them. This can cause:
- Certificate generation failure, leading to startup script errors and container exit.
- Database directory creation failure, causing the program to throw exceptions and crash.
- Log directory creation failure, preventing logs from being written (though the program may continue running).
- **COTURN_PORT**: The port used by Coturn, corresponding to the **Relay Server Port** in the CrossDesk client **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**.
- **MIN_PORT** and **MAX_PORT**: The range of ports used by the self-hosted server, corresponding to the **Minimum Port** and **Maximum Port** in the CrossDesk client **Self-Hosted Server Configuration**. Example: 50000-60000. It depends on the number of devices connected to the server.
- **/path/to/your/certs**: Directory for certificate files.
- **/path/to/your/db**: CrossDesk Server device management database.
- **/path/to/your/logs**: Log directory.
**Note**:
- **/path/to/your/ is an example path; please replace it with your actual path. The mounted directories must be created in advance, otherwise the container will fail.**
- **The server must open the following ports: 3478/udp, 3478/tcp, 30000-60000/udp, CROSSDESK_SERVER_PORT/tcp.**
## Certificate Files
The client needs to load the root certificate, and the server needs to load the server private key and server certificate.
If you already have an SSL certificate, you can skip the following certificate generation steps.
For users without a certificate, you can use the script below to generate the certificate files:
**Solution:** Manually set permissions before starting the container:
```bash
sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/crossdesk /var/log/crossdesk
sudo chown -R $(id -u):$(id -g) /var/lib/crossdesk /var/log/crossdesk
```
# Create certificate generation script
vim generate_certs.sh
```
Copy the following into the script:
```
#!/bin/bash
set -e
# Check arguments
if [ "$#" -ne 1 ]; then
echo "Usage: $0 <SERVER_IP>"
exit 1
fi
SERVER_IP="$1"
# Filenames
ROOT_KEY="crossdesk.cn_root.key"
ROOT_CERT="crossdesk.cn_root.crt"
SERVER_KEY="crossdesk.cn.key"
SERVER_CSR="crossdesk.cn.csr"
SERVER_CERT="crossdesk.cn_bundle.crt"
FULLCHAIN_CERT="crossdesk.cn_fullchain.crt"
# Certificate subject
SUBJ="/C=CN/ST=Zhejiang/L=Hangzhou/O=CrossDesk/OU=CrossDesk/CN=$SERVER_IP"
# 1. Generate root certificate
echo "Generating root private key..."
openssl genrsa -out "$ROOT_KEY" 4096
echo "Generating self-signed root certificate..."
openssl req -x509 -new -nodes -key "$ROOT_KEY" -sha256 -days 3650 -out "$ROOT_CERT" -subj "$SUBJ"
# 2. Generate server private key
echo "Generating server private key..."
openssl genrsa -out "$SERVER_KEY" 2048
# 3. Generate server CSR
echo "Generating server CSR..."
openssl req -new -key "$SERVER_KEY" -out "$SERVER_CSR" -subj "$SUBJ"
# 4. Create temporary OpenSSL config file with SAN
SAN_CONF="san.cnf"
cat > $SAN_CONF <<EOL

# 5. Sign server certificate with root certificate (including SAN)

echo "Generation complete. Deployment files:"
echo " Client root certificate: $ROOT_CERT"
echo " Server private key: $SERVER_KEY"
echo " Server certificate: $SERVER_CERT"
```
Execute:
```
chmod +x generate_certs.sh
./generate_certs.sh EXTERNAL_IP
# example ./generate_certs.sh 111.111.111.111
```
Expected output:
```
Generating root private key...
Generating self-signed root certificate...
Generating server private key...
Generating server CSR...
Signing server certificate with root certificate...
Certificate request self-signature ok
subject=C = CN, ST = Zhejiang, L = Hangzhou, O = CrossDesk, OU = CrossDesk, CN = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
cleaning up intermediate files...
Generation complete. Deployment files::
Client root certificate:: crossdesk.cn_root.crt
Server private key: crossdesk.cn.key
Server certificate: crossdesk.cn_bundle.crt
```
### Certificate Files
You can find the certificate file `crossdesk.cn_root.crt` at `/var/lib/crossdesk/certs` on the host machine.
Download it to your client device and select it in the **Certificate File Path** field under the CrossDesk clients **Self-Hosted Server Settings**.
### Server Side
Place **crossdesk.cn.key** and **crossdesk.cn_bundle.crt** into the **/path/to/your/certs** directory.
