This challenge does not require any open ports, and the server requesting a certificate does not need to be externally accessible.
This challenge does not require any open ports, and the server requesting a certificate does not need to be externally accessible. However, the DNS challenge requires configuration. Caddy needs to know the credentials to access your domain's DNS provider so it can set (and clear) the special TXT records. If the DNS challenge is enabled, other challenges are disabled by default.
