Your experience with SSL certificates

Hello,

We interested in your experience with certificates for Domino servers (web applications, Traveler, iNotes).

We are using our national CA. I think it would be better to move on something else for Traveler and now Chrome 58...

We have domains www.xxx.yy, www2.xxx.yy, etc. ... a total 5 servers.
We are thinking about some global CA (Thawte, GeoTrust ...) and variants:

1: multiple web server certificates (for each server separately)
2: one web server certificate with SAN and EV applied to multiple servers
3: wildcard certificate for * .xxx.yy

Are all possibilities technically comparable? Will be everything work the same way and the question is only financial?

Thank you very much for your advices

RE: Your experience with SSL certificates

I have not done anything with Option 2, so no help there.

 

Choose the Provider of your choice.  Many of my clients use: Thawte and Network Solutions

 

Here is a link you will need to perform the steps - https://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/dominowiki.nsf/dx/3rd_Party_SHA-2_with_OpenSSL_and_kyrtool?open

I had one client use a wildcard, this was a bit tricky, since the steps needed to to be performed, wanted a cert with the Private key in is, with did not seem to be extractable from the cert the provider initially sent.  We got it done and were set for all of their servers.
