How Do I Check Whether the Deployed SSL Certificate Takes Effect?

An SSL certificate is not issued until the CA of the trusted root certificate in web browsers authenticates the server. Therefore, an SSL certificate has two functions: website authentication and transmission encryption.

If you can use https:// to visit your website after you configure your SSL certificate, the certificate is working properly.

Procedure

In the address bar of the browser, enter https://domain name associated with your digital certificate (for example, https://www.huaweicloud.com) to access your website through HTTPS.

If the website can be accessed and the security lock icon is displayed in the address bar of the browser, the SSL certificate is working properly.
