How do I get a valid certificate for a box that is behind a firewall and

I was looking at letsencrypt.org but currently it looks like a valid DNS
entry is needed, of which I don't have.
There is nothing special about my setup, its just a box that is not
directly on the internet, no DNS entry but I need HTTPS to run correctly.
How do I generate a trusted certificate base on IP or something?
How can I do that? Thanks,
Jerry
You create a self-signed certificate.
The first time a browser connects, it will give the user a warning. You
can suppress that warning when connecting with scripts - either by
globally accepting any self-signed certificate or by setting up your own
CA that the script tools are scripted to trust.
I believe self-signed work with either IP or with a hostname on your
local network.
