Submitting a certificate request to a certificate authority

You cannot use the Application Server component without an SSL certificate. Purchase a 128-bit encrypted SSL certificate from a trusted Certificate Authority to guarantee security.

To submit a certificate request to a certificate authority

  1. Create an SSL certificate request.

  2. Open a web browser and go to the website of a certificate authority.

    For a list of trusted certificate authorities, consult Viewing the list of certificate authorities in Internet Explorer.

  3. Purchase a 128-bit encrypted SSL certificate by following the instructions on the certificate authority’s website.

    The exact steps may vary, depending on which trusted certificate authority is used.


After you have received the SSL certificate from the certificate authority, import and assign it.
