If you plan on hosting a publicly available website, you will want to create
a virtual host. See [Virtual Hosting](../vhosts) for details.
## Limitations
There are a few limitations of our CloudStack setup which are worth knowing:
* The console proxy will only work if you're on the campus network. See
[SSH Tricks](../ssh-tricks) for instructions on how to set up a SOCKS proxy.
* If you're uploading a template or ISO from your computer, you also need
to be on the campus network.
* If you're creating a template which downloads an OS image from a URL, and
that URL resolves to a machine on campus, it won't work. There's some
iptables setup which we (syscom) need to do beforehand; just send us an
email if you're going to be downloading a template from an on-campus
server.
