+# WebSocket-Konfiguration für direkte Verbindungen
+
+## Port-Aufteilung
+
+- **Port 2020**: API (HTTP, intern, über Apache-Proxy)
+- **Port 4443**: Socket.io (HTTPS, extern, direkt erreichbar)
+- **Port 4551**: Daemon-WebSocket (HTTPS, extern, direkt erreichbar)
+
+## Umgebungsvariablen für Backend-Server (Socket.io auf Port 4443)
+
+Füge diese Variablen zur Backend `.env` oder Systemd-Service-Datei hinzu:
+
+```bash
+# Socket.io HTTPS-Server
+SOCKET_IO_PORT=4443
+SOCKET_IO_TLS=1
+SOCKET_IO_TLS_KEY_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/privkey.pem
+SOCKET_IO_TLS_CERT_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/fullchain.pem
+# Optional:
+# SOCKET_IO_TLS_CA_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/chain.pem
+```
+
+## Umgebungsvariablen für Daemon (Port 4551)
+
+Füge diese Variablen zur Daemon-Systemd-Service-Datei hinzu:
+
+```bash
+# Daemon WebSocket HTTPS-Server
+DAEMON_PORT=4551
+DAEMON_TLS=1
+DAEMON_TLS_KEY_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/privkey.pem
+DAEMON_TLS_CERT_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/fullchain.pem
+# Optional:
+# DAEMON_TLS_CA_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/chain.pem
+```
+
+## Prüfen der Konfiguration
+
+### 1. Backend-Server-Logs prüfen
+
+```bash
+sudo journalctl -u yourpart-backend -n 50 -f
+```
+
+Du solltest sehen:
+- `[Socket.io] HTTPS-Server für Socket.io konfiguriert auf Port 4443`
+- `[Socket.io] HTTPS-Server läuft auf Port 4443 (direkt erreichbar)`
+
+Wenn du stattdessen siehst:
+- `[Socket.io] TLS nicht konfiguriert - Socket.io wird nicht verfügbar sein`
+
+Dann sind die Umgebungsvariablen nicht gesetzt.
+
+### 2. Ports prüfen
+
+```bash
+sudo netstat -tlnp | grep -E "(4443|4551|2020)"
+```
+
+Du solltest sehen:
+- Port 2020: Backend API (HTTP)
+- Port 4443: Backend Socket.io (HTTPS)
+- Port 4551: Daemon WebSocket (HTTPS)
+
+### 3. Firewall prüfen
+
+```bash
+sudo ufw status | grep -E "(4443|4551)"
+```
+
+Beide Ports sollten erlaubt sein.
+
+## Systemd-Service-Dateien aktualisieren
+
+### Backend-Service (`/etc/systemd/system/yourpart-backend.service`)
+
+Stelle sicher, dass die Umgebungsvariablen in der `[Service]`-Sektion gesetzt sind:
+
+```ini
+[Service]
+Environment="SOCKET_IO_PORT=4443"
+Environment="SOCKET_IO_TLS=1"
+Environment="SOCKET_IO_TLS_KEY_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/privkey.pem"
+Environment="SOCKET_IO_TLS_CERT_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/fullchain.pem"
+```
+
+### Daemon-Service (`/etc/systemd/system/yourpart-daemon.service`)
+
+Stelle sicher, dass die Umgebungsvariablen in der `[Service]`-Sektion gesetzt sind:
+
+```ini
+[Service]
+Environment="DAEMON_PORT=4551"
+Environment="DAEMON_TLS=1"
+Environment="DAEMON_TLS_KEY_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/privkey.pem"
+Environment="DAEMON_TLS_CERT_PATH=/etc/letsencrypt/live/www.your-part.de/fullchain.pem"
+```
+
+Nach dem Ändern der Service-Dateien:
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl daemon-reload
+sudo systemctl restart yourpart-backend
+sudo systemctl restart yourpart-daemon
+```
