By default, endpoints created for both LLM Serving and General Inference deployments are publicly accessible. If you prefer restricted access, you can make the endpoint private by selecting the Make it a private endpoint? option. This setting generates a TLS certificate upon deployment, which you can download. Access to the endpoint will then require the http client to use this certificate. Here are a few examples: Using curl command 
curl -X 'POST' 'https://<endpoint_url>/openai/v1/chat/completions' \
  --cert <path to TLS certificate> \   # Downloaded certificate
  -H 'accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "messages": [
    {
      "role": "user",
      "content": "what is the meaning of life?"
    }
  ],
  "model": "meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct",
  "max_tokens": 512,
  "n": 1,
  "presence_penalty": 0,
  "stream": true,
  "stream_options": {
    "include_usage": true
  },
  "temperature": 0.7,
  "top_p": 1
}'
Using httpx library 
import httpx

client = httpx.Client(cert="<path to TLS certificate>")
Using OpenAPI client library 
import httpx
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    api_key="no_key",
    base_url=”https://<endpoint url>/openai/v1”,
    http_client=httpx.Client(cert="<path to TLS certificate>"),
)
