   For example: https://sslvpn.example.com:8443

2. In the SSL VPN Web Interface, click Basic > SSL Certificate.

   

3. On the SSL Certificate page, in the SSL Certificate Configuration section, in the Certificate Type drop-down list, select Trusted (Signed by a trusted CA).

4. In the Trusted (Signed by a trusted CA) section, upload the following certificate files:

   1. To the right of Add File, click Browse to browse for and select the DigiCertCA.crt file and then, click Upload.
