+## 🌐 Traefik
The front-end reverse proxy (Traefik - **check [this guide](doc/traefik_v2.md) if you still have the seedbox with Traefik v1**) routes based on the lowest level subdomain (e.g. `deluge.example.com` would route to deluge). Since this is how the router works, it is recommended for you to get a top level domain. If you do not have one, you can edit your domains locally by changing your hosts file or use a browser plugin that changes the host header.
