### About subdomain isolation
|
|
|
|
Subdomain isolation mitigates cross-site scripting and other related vulnerabilities. For more information, see "[Cross-site scripting](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting)" on Wikipedia. We highly recommend that you enable subdomain isolation on {% data variables.product.product_location %}.
|
|
|
|
When subdomain isolation is enabled, {% data variables.product.prodname_ghe_server %} replaces several paths with subdomains.
|
|
|
|
{% if currentVersion == "enterprise-server@2.22" %}
|
|
To use Docker with {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}, you must also enable subdomain isolation. For more information, see "[Configuring Docker for use with {% data variables.product.prodname_registry %}](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/user/packages/using-github-packages-with-your-projects-ecosystem/configuring-docker-for-use-with-github-packages)."

### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_installation.disable-github-pages-warning %}
|
|
|
|
Before you enable subdomain isolation, you must configure your network settings for your new domain.
|
|
|
|
- Specify a valid domain name as your hostname, instead of an IP address. For more information, see "[Configuring a hostname](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/admin/guides/installation/configuring-a-hostname)."
|
|
|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_installation.changing-hostname-not-supported %}
|
|
|
|
- Set up a wildcard Domain Name System (DNS) record or individual DNS records for the subdomains listed above. We recommend creating an A record for `*.HOSTNAME` that points to your server's IP address so you don't have to create multiple records for each subdomain.
|
|
- Get a wildcard Transport Layer Security (TLS) certificate for `*.HOSTNAME` with a Subject Alternative Name (SAN) for both `HOSTNAME` and the wildcard domain `*.HOSTNAME`. For example, if your hostname is `github.octoinc.com`, get a certificate with the Common Name value set to `*.github.octoinc.com` and a SAN value set to both `github.octoinc.com` and `*.github.octoinc.com`.
|
|
- Enable TLS on your appliance. For more information, see "[Configuring TLS](/enterprise/{{ currentVersion }}/admin/guides/installation/configuring-tls/)."
|
|
|
|
### Enabling subdomain isolation
|
|
|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_site_admin_settings.access-settings %}
|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_site_admin_settings.management-console %}
|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_management_console.hostname-menu-item %}
|
|
4. Select **Subdomain isolation (recommended)**.
|
|

|
|
{% data reusables.enterprise_management_console.save-settings %}
