+## Reverse Proxy
+
+Wenn Sie einen Reverse-Proxy verwenden, muss dieser noch konfiguriert werden die Websocket Requests richtig weiterzuleiten.
+
+Dies wird für die Docker Konsole und andere Komponenten benötigt.
+
+Hier ist ein Bespiel für Apache:
+
+```
+
+ RewriteEngine on
+ RewriteCond %{HTTP:UPGRADE} ^WebSocket$ [NC]
+ RewriteCond %{HTTP:CONNECTION} Upgrade$ [NC]
+ RewriteRule /portainer/api/websocket/(.*) ws://127.0.0.1:8080/portainer/api/websocket/$1 [P]

+## Reverse Proxy
+
+If you are using a reverse proxy you will have to configure it to properly forward websocket requests.
+
+This needs to be done for the docker console and other components to work.
+
+Here is an example for Apache:
+
+```
+
+ RewriteEngine on
+ RewriteCond %{HTTP:UPGRADE} ^WebSocket$ [NC]
+ RewriteCond %{HTTP:CONNECTION} Upgrade$ [NC]
+ RewriteRule /portainer/api/websocket/(.*) ws://127.0.0.1:8080/portainer/api/websocket/$1 [P]
