Yes, you will need to get a certificate from either source. There is a section in the View documentation that discusses the specifics that may be helpful: http://pubs.vmware.com/view-51/index.jsp?lang=en. The section "Obtaining SSL Certificates for VMware View Servers" discusses how to obtain a certificate from a CA, how to import the certificate onto your View servers, and more specifically what type of certificate to use. The type to use, as Paul mentions, is (SAN) subject alternative names.

 

 

Thank you again, my apologies but I forgot to ask something related previously. So if we are using PCoIP I can't use the SSL Offload option because I have to install the certificate not only on the F5 but also on the view servers? Or can I still just install the Certificate on the F5 and don't have to worry about installing it on the view servers because F5 will be sending the un encrypted information?
