To test the test certificate installed by default, either a CA-signed
certificate, or a self-signed certificate, point your Web browser to
the following home page (replacing
server.example.com with your domain name):
https://server.example.com |
 | Note |
|---|
| | Note the s after
http. The
https: prefix is used for secure HTTP
transactions.

If you are using a CA-signed certificate from a well-known CA, your
browser probably automatically accepts the certificate (without
prompting you for input) and creates the secure connection. Your browser
does not automatically recognize a test or a self-signed certificate,
because the certificate is not signed by a CA. If you are not using a
certificate from a CA, follow the instructions provided by your browser
to accept the certificate.
Once your browser accepts the certificate, your secure server
displays a default home page.
