License

An SSL certificate from a certificate authority or a self-signed certificate.

This certificate must have a subject name or subject alternative name that matches the DNS name of your load balancer server and "localhost" for the HTTPS communication between the Content Composer services on the same machine.

  1. Import your SSL certificate into the certificate stores Personal and Trusted Root Certification Authorities of all Content Composer servers and Content Composer Client computers.
  2. To bind the certificate to the port number, complete the following substeps:
    1. Open the certificate.
    2. On the Details tab, find the Thumbprint field and copy its value to the clipboard.
    3. Open a Command Prompt window with Administrator rights.
    4. Execute the following command, replacing [PortNr] with the port number used in the Content Composer server configuration files and [Thumbprint] with the thumbprint value of your certificate. 
      netsh http add sslcert ipport=0.0.0.0:[PortNr] certhash=[Thumbprint] appid=[any GUID]
    Note: Binding is not needed for Content Composer Client computers.
