### Creating SSL Certificates
<Callout type='error'>
Using SSL is not required to run Elytra, but if you checked ``Use SSL Connection`` when adding the node to your panel, you will need to do this step to enable SSL.
It is recommended that you do this step to ensure connection security between the panel and the node.
</Callout>

Before continuing to create an SSL certificate, ensure that you have created an A Record for the FDQN you wish to use for the node, pointed to the IP of the machine on which the node will be running.
