Horizon View 5.2 wildcard certificate for HTML access

[Romino]

Hello, can you please advise if there is a way how to setup the same wildcard certificate for all the components including the View portal and the HTML access?

We use a *.moravia-it.com certificate for load balanced connection servers and for security servers. When I connect to the View portal at https://vdissh.moravia-it.com, everything is fine - see below

When I click the desktop, I am redirected to https://vdissh-mnet-1.mnet.moravia-it.com which is the first node of the NLB cluster and then I get the certificate warning below (wildcard doesn't work)

When ignoring the warning I can successfully connect to the desktop but there is a Certificate error shown in the address bar - see below.

Can I redirect to the cluster name and get rid of the certificate error?

Thank you for your help in advance!

Your wildcard certificate does not cover subdomains of *.moravia-it.com (e.g. *.mnet.moravia-it.com).

You will need another wildcard certificate for *.mnet.moravia-it.com.

Assuming that vdissh.moravia-it.com is the hostname of your Security Server, just set your "Blast External URL" to "https://vdissh.moravia-it.com:8443".

See the instructions here on how to do so:
