ESXi SSL Certs

Is there any guidance on how to request and install an SSL cert that's trusted by iOS.

I've had a good long google at it and I can't find anything thats clear/simple enough to follow with my level of understanding.

I've got a domain (ESXi.mycompany.com) pointing at the server and signed a cert with my cert server on Mac OS but I can't get iOs devices to trust it for the socket connection the iOS app uses.

I think letsencrypt may be the way to go but im unsure how to request a cert that I can install on the ESXI server.

Thanks!

If you generate a certificate using csr file which is as per the requirement mentioned in below document, I think you would be able to use such a cert for ESXi,
