After obtaining the certificate from a CA, you can install the certificate for a configuration using the Administration Console.
Click Server Certificates tab > Install button.
Select Configuration
Select a configuration from the configuration list for which you need to install the certificate.
Select Tokens
Select the token (Cryptographic Device), which contains the keys. If your key is stored in the local key database maintained by the server, choose internal. If your key is stored in a Smart Card or other external device or engine, choose the name of the external token from the drop down list box. Enter the password for the selected token.
Enter Certificate Data
Paste the certificate text in the text area provided. When you copy and paste the text, be sure to include the headers “Begin Certificate” and “End Certificate” — including the beginning and ending hyphens. You can also click Browse button and select the .DER file manually.
Provide Certificate Details
Provide a nickname to be used for the certificate. Select the HTTP Listener from the available list for handling the secure requests. You can also select the self signed certificate option.
