Your servers, one command

A small agent runs on every server; the panel installs and updates it. It only sets up Docker, DHCP, DNS, TFTP or the reverse proxy once a module needs them. The connection is encrypted and secured with your instance’s own certificate.

Connect a server

wget https://panel.deine-firma.de/hostsystem/api/install/ -O install.sh && sh install.sh

Every feature is included in every plan.
