+# Netdata via Caddy
+
+To run netdata via [Caddy's proxying,](https://caddyserver.com/docs/proxy) set your Caddyfile up like this:
+
+```
+netdata.domain.tld {
+    proxy / localhost:19999
+}
+```
+
+Other directives can be added between the curly brackets as needed.
+
+To run netdata in a subfolder:
+
+```
+netdata.domain.tld {
+    proxy /netdata/ localhost:19999 {
+        without /netdata
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## limit direct access to netdata
+
+You would also need to instruct netdata to listen only to `127.0.0.1` or `::1`.
+
+To limit access to netdata only from localhost, set `bind socket to IP = 127.0.0.1` or `bind socket to IP = ::1` in `/etc/netdata/netdata.conf`.
