Deploying an SSL Certificate to CDN

When an SSL certificate is issued, you can deploy it to Huawei Cloud Content Delivery Network (CDN) in just a few clicks. With SSL certificates, data access to your website that uses CDN is more secure.

Prerequisites

  • You have enabled CDN, added your website to CDN, and configured an SSL certificate for the website in CDN.

    If you have not purchased CDN or the domain name you want to use the certificate for has not been added to CDN, deploying the certificate to CDN may fail.

  • You have an SSL certificate that is in Issued or Hosted status.

Constraints

  • If you select Upload a CSR for CSR when applying for a certificate, the issued certificate cannot be directly deployed to other cloud products through SCM. To use a certificate for a cloud product, download the certificate to your local PC first. Then, upload it to the cloud product and complete deployment.
  • To deploy a certificate to an accelerated domain name in CDN, HTTPS must be enabled for the domain name, or the certificate cannot be deployed for it.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > Cloud Certificate Management Service. The service console is displayed.
  3. In the navigation pane, choose SSL Certificate Manager > SSL Certificates.
  4. Locate the row containing the certificate you want to deploy on other cloud product, and click Deploy in the Operation to go to the certificate deployment details page.
