# Local instance
It is possible due to several reasons that you do not want or cannot open Nextcloud to the public internet. However AIO requires a valid certificate to work correctly. Below is discussed how you can achieve both: Having a valid certificate for Nextcloud and only using it locally.
It is possible due to several reasons that you do not want or cannot open Nextcloud to the public internet. Perhaps you were hoping to access AIO directly from an `ip.add.r.ess` (unsupported) or without a valid domain. However, AIO requires a valid certificate to work correctly. Below is discussed how you can achieve both: Having a valid certificate for Nextcloud and only using it locally.

### How to get Nextcloud running using the ACME DNS-challenge?
You can install AIO in reverse proxy mode where is also documented how to get it running using the ACME DNS-challenge for getting a valid certificate for AIO. See the [reverse proxy documentation](./reverse-proxy.md). (Meant is the `Caddy with ACME DNS-challenge` section). Also see https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden/wiki/Running-a-private-vaultwarden-instance-with-Let%27s-Encrypt-certs#getting-a-custom-caddy-build for additional docs on this topic.

### How to run Nextcloud locally? No domain wanted, or wanting intranet access within your LAN.
If you do not want to open Nextcloud to the public internet, you may have a look at the following documentation on how to set it up locally: [local-instance.md](./local-instance.md), but keep in mind you're still required to have https working properly.
### Can I use an ip-address for Nextcloud instead of a domain?
No and it will not be added. If you only want to run it locally, you may have a look at the following documentation: [local-instance.md](./local-instance.md) for configuration without a traditional domain. Or, [consider using NextcloudPi](nextcloudpi.com) for ip-address access locally (it bundles fewer features than AIO).
### Can I run AIO offline or in an airgapped system?
No. This is not possible and will not be added due to multiple reasons: update checks, app installs via app-store, downloading additional docker images on demand and more.
