This section describes the general procedure for setting up SSL on an app server. These are the general steps:

• Create a certificate template, as described in Creating a Certificate Template.

• Enable SSL for the app server, as described in Enabling SSL for an App Server.

• Access the SSL-enabled server from a browser, as described in Accessing an SSL-Enabled Server from a Browser or WebDAV Client.
