Overview

This section allows you to manage your SSL Certificates. There are two types of certificates, each in its own tab: Server and CA.

Server Certificates versus CA Certificates

In the current version, mTLS is available when using AWS NLB (Network Load Balancing). If you are not using NLB, the CA Certificates tab will not appear in the interface.

Administration (for both types)

The list of currently defined Certificates is displayed in each tab. From here, new certificates can be generated, or existing ones can be edited.

When adding new certificates, publishing your changes is necessary to make the new certificates available for use in the system.

Both types of certificates are administered using the same procedures, described below.

Generating a Certificate

Selecting the + New button displays the Generate certificate dialog:

Certificates can be added manually, or L11WAAP can parse a PFX file.

Editing/Configuring a Certificate

When an existing Certificate is edited, the Edit Certificate dialog appears:

Editable parameters and controls

Auto Replacement by Let's Encrypt

Let's Encrypt is a free certificate authority service. L11WAAP integrates with it, and offers this service by default.

Once a day, L11WAAP will check each application it protects. If that application's certificate is going to expire in the coming week, and its Auto Replacement by Let's Encrypt option for that certificate is enabled, L11WAAP will generate a new certificate using Let's Encrypt, and will attach all of its sites to the new certificate.

Attach To Application

This tab includes a list of Server Groups. Selecting one will connect this Certificate to it.

Replace Existing Certificate

This tab includes a list of Certificates defined within the system. Selecting one and then clicking Save will result in all sites/applications being transferred from the selected Certificate over to the Certificate you're currently editing.

Download PFX

This will download the certificate information as a file in PFX format.

Server Certificates can be attached to , or to domains via .

CA Certificates are used for mTLS connections between clients and Link11 WAAP. More information about how L11WAAP supports mTLS is here: .
