+# Allow HTTPS Through Your UFW Firewall
+
+UFW -- Uncomplicated Firewall -- is just what is sounds like. I have it
+running on a DigitalOcean box and it is only letting through traffic on
+ports 80 (HTTP) and 22 (SSH). I am setting up SSL for a domain hosted on
+this box which means I need to also let through traffic on 443 (HTTPS).
+
+The allowed ports can be checked with the `status` command:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo ufw status
+
+Status: active
+
+To                         Action      From
+--                         ------      ----
+OpenSSH                    ALLOW       Anywhere
+Nginx HTTP                 ALLOW       Anywhere
+OpenSSH (v6)               ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
+Nginx HTTP (v6)            ALLOW       Anywhere (v6)
+```
+
+As we can see, `HTTPS` has not yet been allowed by `ufw`. We can _allow_
+HTTPS traffic with the `allow` command.
+
+```bash
+$ sudo ufw allow https
+```
+
+Check the status again and see that `HTTPS` is now included in the list.
