Adding a SSL Certificate to Load Balancer
Pre-requisites:
Make sure the SSL certificate is available.
By default, the load balancer is set to allow both unencrypted HTTP (port 18101) and encrypted HTTPS/SSL (port 18102). For SSL, the certificate must fit to the load balancer's host name.
Ensure the SSL certificate is signed by a Certificate Authority (CA). You can also obtain SSL certificate from an official CA.
To add a SSL certificate to load balancer:
1. Bundle the extension.key file used to encrypt an information sent back to the client and the extension.crt file into a zip folder.
2. Copy the zip folder to a local directory accessible by the ACC console.
3. Start the ACC console.
4. Stop the load balancer runnables.
stop loadbalancer_m
5. Enhance the loadbalancer_<s, m, or l> with the sslCertificate local file from the location c:\\temp\\lbcert.zip
enhance loadbalancer_m with sslCertificate local file "c:\\temp\\lbcert.zip".
Alternatively, use forward slashes. For example: c:/temp/lbcert.zip.
6. Start the load balancer runnables.
start loadbalancer_m
