The options for SSL certificates include the following:
- Third-Party – Coordinate with the local IT department before installing the SBH. Follow the instructions included in the Installing a security certificate on a client that is connected to the SBH section. If you need to create a request for a certificate signed by a public CA, see the Creating a certificate request (CSR).
- Self-Signed – Follow the installation process that allows you to generate a self-signed certificate in the Creating a self-signed certificate section.
Note: It is best practice not to implement a self-signed SSL certificate for
networks exposed directly to the internet because they do not have the protection of
a firewall or VPN.
You must have Port 80 (TCP) and Port 443 (SSL) open on the computer that is connected to the SBH.
