To request an SSL certificate on a web server you need to fill out the SSL Certificate Request:
SSL certificates are used to encrypt data. These are installed on a web server and are most commonly used for HTTPS traffic on the internet. Typically, SSL is used to secure credit card transactions, data transfers,s and logins, and more recently is becoming the norm when securing the browsing of social media sites. SSL Certificates bind together: A domain name/server name & an organizational identity /location.
Please include the following:
- Server name - The fully qualified domain name
- Other Host names – Other server names you want to be included in the certificate. This allows you to request one certificate for a service that is load balanced and then you can install the one certificate on all servers
