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 because no private key of the certificate is available on the cloud. To use a certificate in a cloud product, download the certificate to your local PC first. Then, upload the certificate and private key to the cloud product and complete deployment.

Deploying Certificates

Log in to the management console.
Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > Cloud Certificate Management Service. The service console is displayed.
In the navigation pane on the left, choose SSL Certificate Manager > SSL Certificates.
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.
