Viaalink Relay
your own tunnel server, with automatic HTTPS
Get a web address. Be reachable from anywhere.
Viaalink Relay publishes what runs on your machine to a real web address on your own domain, with HTTPS.
A Viaalink Relay is the door that gives you an address: one address where people and phones reach what you share, from anywhere across the globe.
Self-hosted. runs on your server, NAS or PC · Automatic HTTPS. automatic HTTPS (Let's Encrypt) once your domain points at the Relay
01 / What it does
Everything a Relay does, out of the box.
Eight things every Viaalink Relay does. Each one links to its guide in the docs.
Publish with one command
Publish any local web app at its own address under your domain with one command.
Publishing guideAutomatic HTTPS
Every address gets HTTPS from Let's Encrypt on its own. Wildcard certificates work through Porkbun, Cloudflare, Route53, DigitalOcean or GoDaddy.
DNS and certificatesYour own domains
Add your own domains, each with its own certificate choice.
Certificate per domainNot just websites
Publish SSH, databases and other ports too, or connect machines over a private named link.
Ports and databasesA setup page in your browser
Paste your license, set your domains, users and router, and see which devices are connected.
The setup pageRouter ports opened for you
The Relay forwards its own router ports through UPnP or ASUSTOR EZ-Router, and runs as an app on an ASUSTOR NAS.
Router and NAS guideCalls through firewalls
Calls through firewalls are built in — switch them on with your server's public address.
Settings for callsLock links down
Protect an address with a password, let in only approved devices, send invites, or allow and block by IP address or country.
Access control
02 / How it works
Three steps from your machine to an address anywhere.
Your machine opens an outbound encrypted tunnel to your Viaalink Relay. People and phones reach what you share at a real web address on your own domain, with HTTPS — without opening inbound ports on your office or home router.
- your machine localhost:3000 · app
- outbound tunnel
- Viaalink Relay relay.yourcompany.com
- HTTPS
- people & phones app.relay.yourcompany.com

01
Run a Relay (server, NAS or PC)
Start Viaalink Relay on a Linux server, a NAS or a PC under your control with Docker or the standalone binary viaalink-relay.
02
Point your domain at it
Get automatic HTTPS (Let's Encrypt) once your domain points at the Relay, so published services get addresses under relay.yourcompany.com.
03
Publish anything — from anywhere
Publish a website, app or office tool from your machine over an outbound tunnel — and carry calls through firewalls for the Viaalink app with via publish 3000.
03 / Get one
