If your Home Assistant instance is using SSL, enable this option.
For more information on Home Assistant SSL, see Securing your Home Assistant instance.
Port
The port is a communication endpoint for your Home Assistant instance. By default, Home Assistant listens on port 8123. When configuring remote access or setting up a reverse proxy, the user need to ensure the appropriate port is exposed or forwarded in your router or firewall settings. When using SSL, the HTTPS protocol will also require a port (usually 443) to be opened for secure communication.
