### Enable Local Fulfillment
Google Assistant devices can send their commands locally to Home Assistant allowing them to respond faster.
Your Home Assistant instance needs to be connected to the same network as the Google Assistant device that you’re talking to so that it can be discovered via mDNS discovery (UDP broadcasts).
Your Google Assistant devices will still communicate via the internet to:
- Sync entities.
- Get credentials to establish a local connection.
- Send commands that involve a [secure device](#secure-device).
- Send commands if local fulfillment fails.
<div class='note'>
The [`ssl_certificate` option](/integrations/http/#ssl_certificate) in the `http` integration must not have a value or this feature won't work.
This is because Google requires a valid certificate and the way it connects to Home Assistant for local fulfillment makes that impossible. Consider using a reverse proxy such as the {% my supervisor_addon addon="core_nginx_proxy" title="NGINX SSL" %} add-on instead of directing external traffic directly to Home Assistant.
The [HTTP integration](/integrations/http) must **not** be configured to use an SSL certificate with the [`ssl_certificate` option](/integrations/http/#ssl_certificate).
This is because the Google Assistant device will connect directly to the IP of your Home Assistant instance and will fail if it encounters an invalid SSL certificate.
For secure remote access, use a reverse proxy such as the {% my supervisor_addon addon="core_nginx_proxy" title="NGINX SSL" %} add-on instead of directing external traffic straight to Home Assistant.
