You will be prompted to select the SSL Certificate you would like to use for the Firewall to ensure all traffic is secured.
To ensure traffic to the server is secure and that your website shows as secure, when being cached by the CDN, you need to add your SSL Certificate to the Website Firewall Platform. The instructions on how to do this vary for the different types of SSL Certificates that are available. This can be managed from the “Manage Website Platform SSL” page
Memset Provided SSL Certificate
If your SSL is ordered and provided by Memset and listed in your Memset Account, you can add it here, in the “SSL Cert Setting” select “Memset SSL Certificate”, underneath that you will see a list with all available SSL Certificates, select the certificate that applies to your domain.
Once you have selected the Certificate, press the “Update Configuration” button.
When the SSL Certificate is renewed it will automatically update with the new SSL Details and apply them to the Website Firewall Platform.
Third Party Provided SSL Certificate / Manually Specify SSL Certificate
If you have an SSL from a third party or service and have access to the Certificate and Private Key, you will need to manually provide these details to be used in the Website Firewall Platform.
Select the “Manually Specified” option in the SSL Cert Setting, and then select the “Upload new SSL Certificate”, you will then have two options appear allowing you to provide the Certificate File and Private Key in PEM format.
Once you have selected the Certificate, press the “Update Configuration” button.
Note: When the SSL Certificate is renewed you will need to manually update the SSL Details provided with the new Certificate and Private Key.
No SSL Certificate / Other (Let’s Encrypt)
If you don’t have an SSL Certificate, or would prefer not to use one, you can use the Let’s Encrypt service.
This will automatically generate a certificate for you as soon as the DNS is configured, which will auto renew once it expires.
