SSL certificate management - best practices anyone?
SSL certs should simply use the common name of the cert as their object name.
Keys and matching Certificates should be combined on the same entry in the SSL Certificates list. The only keys that should be left are those awaiting certificates to be issued. All expired certs should be removed and profiles that use them updated to current certificates.
SSL profiles should use the fqdn, eg clientssl_fqdn of the DNS entry used to target the virtual server. This fqdn should exist in the cert attached to the profile, either the common name or the subject alternate names as sometimes a cert many have many names associated with it.
