How Do I Configure a Non-Huawei Cloud SSL Certificate for a Huawei Cloud Product?

A non-Huawei Cloud certificate refers to an SSL certificate that is applied for from non-Huawei Cloud and is issued by a CA, for example, an SSL certificate that is applied for from another cloud service provider or an offline certificate provider and issued by a CA.

All SSL certificates are issued by the CA, regardless of platforms on which SSL certificates are applied for.

Any SSL certificates you requested from any platforms can be used in Huawei Cloud after the certificate is issued by a trusted CA. However, one-click deployment of these certificates to other cloud products, such as WAF, ELB, and CDN, is not included in CCM. CCM is recommended for purchasing SSL certificates so that you can deploy SSL certificates you get to cloud products you are using for your business in just a few clicks. With SSL certificates, data access through the cloud products is more secure.

To configure a non-Huawei Cloud SSL certificate for a Huawei Cloud service, perform the following operations as required:
