Installing a Wildcard (*) SSL Certificate on Multiple BSCs
Before installing a wildcard SSL certificate on multiple BSCs, you first need to obtain and
install a new SSL Certificate on the first BSC, as explained in "Installing a Custom SSL
Login Certificate" on page 11-22.
Note: If your new Certificate does not work as expected, please make sure that for each
BSC: the hostname is unique; the domain matches the SSL Certificate; the hostname is in
your DNS server and resolves to the Protected address of each BSC; Redirect to
Hostname is checked on the General HTTP tab.
To install a wildcard SSL certificate on multiple BSCs:
On the first BSC, click the Web Logins tab in the administrator console, then click the
1.
SSL Certificate tab, then click Current.
Scroll to the bottom of the page.
2.
3.
Click on Download Key and save the .key file. You will need this .key file for each
BSC on which you want to install the Certificate.

Click the Web Logins tab in the administrator console, then click the SSL
Certificate tab, and then click the Renewal Setup link.
If there is an existing Certificate displayed on the Renewal Setup page, click
Delete Cert, then click Delete Key.
Scroll down, click Browse and select the .key file that you downloaded from the
first BSC.
Click Process. The page updates.
Click Browse and select the .crt file that you received from the CA.
Click Process.
Click Switch!. The page will redisplay in one of these two ways:
•
The page looks as if you haven't uploaded the .key and .crt files yet. This will
be the case if there was no Certificate installed on this BSC to begin with.
•
The page will look unchanged. Upon examining the Certificate displayed,
however, you can see that the displayed Certificate is actually the old
Certificate that you are replacing.
Both conditions are correct, as the page labeled Current will now have the
Certificate you just loaded.
Click the Current link to verify your new Certificate is indeed now shown as the
Current Certificate on the Current page.
Click the Click here link to apply the changes and activate the "Current"
Certificate for this BSC.
