Server Delegation by means of a `/.well-known/matrix/server` file is the most straightforward, but suffers from the following downsides:
- you need to have a working HTTPS server for the base domain (`<your-domain>`)
- you need to have a working HTTPS server for the base domain (`<your-domain>`). If you don't have any server for the base domain at all, you can easily solve it by making the playbook [serve the base domain from the Matrix server](configuring-playbook-base-domain-serving.md).
- any downtime on the base domain (`<your-domain>`) or network trouble between the matrix subdomain (`matrix.<your-domain>`) and the base `<domain>` may cause Matrix Federation outages. As the [Server-Server spec says](https://matrix.org/docs/spec/server_server/r0.1.0.html#server-discovery):

- ensure that you have a `_matrix._tcp` DNS SRV record for your base domain (`<your-domain>`) with a value of `10 0 8448 matrix.<your-domain>`
- ensure that you are serving the Matrix Federation API (tcp/8448) with a certificate for `<your-domain>` (not `matrix.<your-domain>`!). Getting this certiface to the `matrix.<your-domain>` server may be complicated. The playbook's automatic SSL obtaining/renewal flow will likely not work and you'll need to copy certificates around manually. See below.
