Test it by running curl -I https://yourdomain.com. It should successfully hit your proxy and return an HTTP status code.
### Step 2: Configure OpenLiteSpeed to Trust the Proxy
OpenLiteSpeed needs to know that the Zoraxy IP is a trusted proxy so it correctly processes the forwarded client IPs and security headers.
1. Log into your OpenLiteSpeed WebAdmin Console (usually `https://your-backend-ip:7080`).
2. Navigate to **Server Configuration** > **Security**.
3. Under **Access Control** > **Allowed List**, add your proxy IP with a trailing `T` (for Trusted):
```text
192.168.31.2T
4. Navigate to Server Configuration > General.
5. Set Use Client IP in Header to Trusted IP Only.
6. Perform a Graceful Restart of OpenLiteSpeed.
## Step 3: Clear LiteSpeed Cache Overrides
If you previously attempted to force an IP address in the WordPress plugin settings, it will break this new internal routing.
1. Go to your WordPress Dashboard.
2. Navigate to LiteSpeed Cache > General.
3. Ensure the Server IP field is completely blank.
4. Click Save Changes.
## Step 4: Link to QUIC.cloud
Click the Link to QUIC.cloud button again. The server will now properly route the self-test through the proxy, complete the handshake, and generate your domain key!

Now that the proxy routing is locked in and your cache is linked, would you like me to walk you through double-checking the Cloudflare SSL/TLS settings to make sure they are set to "Full (Strict)"?
