I've been using Traefik for quite a while to route different domains and subdomains to different Docker containers on a server, but wondered about the security implications (or not) of ports 443 and 80 being open on my router all the time.



Am I correct in thinking that 443 needs to be open in order for my domains to work over https, and that I need to permanently leave that port open?
If so, would changing the external port make it 'more secure'? (i.e. use some random external port and forward it to the internal port 443) E.g. 28473 external port forwarded to 443 internally?



Also, do I need to leave port 80 open on my router all the time? Isn't that used just for Let's Encrypt to create/issue/renew certificates? If so would it work to only open that port 'now and then' to renew the certificates?
Or like my previous question, would it be better to open some random external port and forward that to the internal port 80?



Would that improve security, or am I wrong in thinking that? :)
