Create a Certificate

On the main menu of ZStack Cloud, choose Resource Center > Network Service > Basic Network Service > Load Balancing > Certificate Management. On the Certificate Management tab, click Create Certificate. The Create Certificate page appears.

On the displayed page, set the following parameters:

Name: Enter a name for the certificate.
Description: Optional. Enter a description for the certificate.
Certificate Text: Enter the certificate content.
Sample:
```
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
#end-usercertiicate#
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```
Note:
- The certificate content starts with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and ends with -----END CERTIFICATE-----.
- The certificate content cannot contain spaces.
Private Key: Enter the private key.
Sample:
```
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----
#privatekey#
-----END PRIVATE KEY-----
```
Note:
- The private key starts with -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE----- and ends with -----END CERTIFICATE-----.
- The private key cannot contain spaces.
Certificate Chain: Optional. If you need to upload multiple certificates, you need to combine the root and intermediates certificates and then upload the certificates.
Sample:
```
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
#rootcertificate#
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
#intermediatescertiicate#
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
#intermediatescertificate#
-----END CERTIFICATE-----
```
Note:
- Put the root certificate in the first place and arrange the intermediate certificates in order from the second place. Do not leave blank lines between the certificates.
- The certificate content cannot contain spaces.

Considerations

If an LB listener uses the HTTPS protocol, you must associate certificates with the listener. You can upload individual certificates or a certificate chain.
