# ACME
Synapse v1.0 requires that federation TLS certificates are verifiable by a
trusted root CA. If you do not already have a valid certificate for your domain, the easiest
way to get one is with Synapse's new ACME support, which will use the ACME
protocol to provision a certificate automatically. By default, certificates
will be obtained from the publicly trusted CA Let's Encrypt.
Synapse v1.0 will require valid TLS certificates for communication between
servers (port `8448` by default) in addition to those that are client-facing
(port `443`). If you do not already have a valid certificate for your domain,
the easiest way to get one is with Synapse's new ACME support, which will use
the ACME protocol to provision a certificate automatically. Synapse v0.99.0+
will provision server-to-server certificates automatically for you for free
through [Let's Encrypt](https://letsencrypt.org/) if you tell it to.
In the case that your `server_name` config variable is the same as
the hostname that the client connects to, then the same certificate can be
used between client and federation ports without issue.
For a sample configuration, please inspect the new ACME section in the example
generated config by running the `generate-config` executable. For example::

## Config file editing
Finally, once Synapse is able to listen on port 80 for ACME challenge
requests, it must be told to perform ACME provisioning by setting `enabled`
to true under the `acme` section in `homeserver.yaml`:
