I want to configure AWS EC2 for SSL Certificate.
My Project running on NGINX Server of ubuntu Ec2.
Can anyone provide me steps how can i generate SSL certificate and configure in NGINX server.
Note : I don’t have domain.For Testing and Development purchase.
If you don’t have a domain, you basically can’t get a valid / trusted certificate (I mean, basically, at least from let’s Encrypt).
However, there’s other ways to get a certificate without paying for domain. Websites like freenom actually offers free domain (for a short period or with other limitations). You could get a domain from freenom first, then get a certificate using that domain.
No, Let’s Encrypt certificate will only work when you have a certificate. You can’t (not yet) issue a certificate to an IP, local domain or not registered domain.
AWS (public) Certificate Manager have the same requirements.
