Generating and installing a signed SSL certificate
By default, a self-signed certificate is used by the server. SSL certificates are
used to verify the user's identity and to enhance security on the server. You
can get a digitally signed SSL certificate from a trusted certificate authority
(CA) by sending a certificate signing request (CSR). After you obtain the
signed certificate, you can import it to the server.
The following is a sample procedure for generating and installing a signed
SSL certificate. The process of obtaining a certificate may be different within
each organization.
