Configure your web site to use an x509 (aka SSL or https) certificate

One you have obtained a security certificate from a certificate authority, you can start using by:

  1. Add a new https web config that includes the following:
    #SSL Stuff
    SSLEngine On
    SSLCertificateFile /path/to/certificate/file.crt
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/key/file.key
    SSLCertificateChainFile /path/to/key/intermediate.crt
    
  2. Add a * to the IP field of your web configuration. We use a method called Server Name Indication. Though if you would prefer your own IP address you may request it.

If you are replacing your key and certificate, you should already have a web config with this information - you will only need to change the path to the keys and certificates, replacing the paths to your old files with the path to your newly generated files.
