    Hi @Mohamed_Ahmed_Kansoh

    Yes sure, that will be a certificate which will be generated from Trusted Certifying Authority & I want to deployed it in Load balancer hardware port. The machanism will be without privet key another component cannot communicate with load balancer. Hope ill get a solution...!!

    Thanks
