Migration
We are currently in a migration period, where we are moving DNS resources to Cloudflare away from a self hosted instance of PowerDNS. DNS records may not deploy properly until we have completed this migration.
If you experience any issues during this period, please email [email protected] and we will try our best to assist you.
About
Get valid HTTPS certificates for your local network in just ten minutes!
localcert.net lets you easily deploy Let's Encrypt HTTPS certificates to internal web apps.
Register a local-only domain name and automate issuance of domain verified certificates. Paired with automatic certificate management (ACME), internal websites can easily renew their certificates without manual process.
Free local-only domain names
Our free local-only domain can only be used on a private network.
getlocalcert restricts how a registrant can manage DNS for their domain.
A, AAAA, and CNAME records are handled differently on each of our domains.
Other records, like MX and NS, may not be set.
Issuing Certificates
The registrant is able to manage TXT records with the name _acme-challenge.
This record is used during the Automated Certificate Management (ACME) DNS-01 protocol when issuing a domain verified certificate.
By allowing the registrant to control this record, we support TLS certificate issuance even for systems that are not accessible from the Internet.
Free certificates may be obtained from Let's Encrypt.
