Hello everyone,

Many thanks for your time and consideration.

what kind of retry?

trusted ssl certificate isnt free.  
so you should buy and use 1 proper certificate, instead of multiple certificates, for a service

Definitely possible, but as stated here you should use only one SSL certificate for a service.

He is asking about using different SSL profile.

2 SSL profiles might share the same SSL certificate but differ on other settings. So I don’t see a case with this.

But I also don’t understand the point. Could you give more info on what are you trying to achieve?
