    Is it doable to create a virtual server for SSL and HTTP that only does redirects. But really does not send traffic to server nodes. I'm trying to save $ on certificate cost for new domain we just acquired

     

    Certainly, but as Nitass stated, users will get a certificate warning message if the requested host name is not in the server certificate.
