Requesting a Server Certificate for Shibboleth ServiceProviders
For RWTH-Federation we generally only accept RWTH-CA certificates.
Instructions for creating and applying for the server certificate can be found in the RWTH-DFN Certification Portal.
Important
For normal HTTPS communication (for your web server) you continue to use the official certificates from GÉANT/TCS.
You therefore have two certificates for your service provider: one certificate from the DFN-Verein Community PKI, which you use for the Shibboleth service provider, and one certificate from GÉANT/TCS, which you use for the web server.
