Multiple SSL Certs on a single virtual server?

Hi gang,

 

 

I'm curious if there's a way to do this. For a new project I'm working on, we'll have multiple domains being routed to a single web application pool. Each of these domains need to have SSL certificates. Is there a way to have multiple certs on a single VS?

 

 

I know that we can create multiple VS's and have them all use the same backend resources (pools, irules, etc) and apply the SSL cert profile(s) individually. But I'm wondering if there's a better way? Currently we're working with 2 domains in three TLDs (domain1.com, domain1.eu, domain1.co.uk, domain2.com, domain2.eu, domain2.co.uk, etc.) and I expect that number to grow to about 5-6 domains in each TLD before the end of the year. Add in the customer-accessible staging and test systems...

 

 

Anyone have any suggestions? Is there a creative iRule, or SSL profile I can create that will allow me to have certs for www.domain1.com, www.domain1.co.uk, and www.domain1.eu on the same virtual server?
