# Insecure Registry
While it's highly recommended to secure your registry using a TLS certificate issued by a known CA, you may alternatively decide to use self-signed certificates, or even use your registry over plain http.

## Deploying a plain HTTP registry

This basically tells Docker to entirely disregard security for your registry.
While this is relatively easy to configure the daemon in this way, it is
**very** insecure. It does expose your registry to trivial MITM. Only use this
solution for isolated testing or in a tightly controlled, air-gapped
environment.
1. edit the file `/etc/default/docker` so that there is a line that reads: `DOCKER_OPTS="--insecure-registry myregistrydomain.com:5000"` (or add that to existing `DOCKER_OPTS`)
2. restart your Docker daemon: on ubuntu, this is usually `service docker stop && service docker start`
1. Open the `/etc/default/docker` file or `/etc/sysconfig/docker` for editing.
Depending on your operating system, your Engine daemon start options.
2. Edit (or add) the `DOCKER_OPTS` line and add the `--insecure-registry` flag.
This flag takes the URL of your registry, for example.
`DOCKER_OPTS="--insecure-registry myregistrydomain.com:5000"`
3. Close and save the configuration file.
4. Restart your Docker daemon
The command you use to restart the daemon depends on your operating system.
For example, on Ubuntu, this is usually the `service docker stop` and `service
docker start` command.
5. Repeat this configuration on every Engine host that wants to access your registry.
**Pros:**
- relatively easy to configure
**Cons:**
- this is **very** insecure: you are basically exposing yourself to trivial MITM, and this solution should only be used for isolated testing or in a tightly controlled, air-gapped environment
- you have to configure every docker daemon that wants to access your registry
## Using self-signed certificates
> **Warning**: using this along with basic authentication requires to **also** trust the certificate into the OS cert store for some versions of docker (see below)
Generate your own certificate:
This is more secure than the insecure registry solution. You must configure every docker daemon that wants to access your registry
1. Generate your own certificate:
mkdir -p certs && openssl req \
-newkey rsa:4096 -nodes -sha256 -keyout certs/domain.key \
-x509 -days 365 -out certs/domain.crt
Be sure to use the name `myregistrydomain.com` as a CN.
2. Be sure to use the name `myregistrydomain.com` as a CN.
Use the result to [start your registry with TLS enabled](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/deploying.md#get-a-certificate)
3. Use the result to [start your registry with TLS enabled](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/deploying.md#get-a-certificate)
Then you have to instruct every docker daemon to trust that certificate. This is done by copying the `domain.crt` file to `/etc/docker/certs.d/myregistrydomain.com:5000/ca.crt`.
4. Instruct every docker daemon to trust that certificate.
Don't forget to restart docker after doing so.
This is done by copying the `domain.crt` file to `/etc/docker/certs.d/myregistrydomain.com:5000/ca.crt`.
**Pros:**
5. Don't forget to restart the Engine daemon.

simply place the CA certificate at /etc/docker/certs.d/myregistrydomain.com:5000/ca.crt

update-ca-certificates

$ cp certs/domain.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/myregistrydomain.com.crt
update-ca-certificates
```
... and on Red Hat (and its derivatives) with:
cp certs/domain.crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/myregistrydomain.com.crt
update-ca-trust
```bash
cp certs/domain.crt /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors/myregistrydomain.com.crt
update-ca-trust
```
... On some distributions, e.g. Oracle Linux 6, the Shared System Certificates feature needs to be manually enabled:
update-ca-trust enable
```bash
$ update-ca-trust enable
```
Now restart docker (`service docker stop && service docker start`, or any other way you use to restart docker).
