Multiple SSL listeners can share the same key and certificate.<br/><br/> You can generate SSL private keys yourself using an SSL software package, such as OpenSSL. SSL certificates can also be purchased from an authorized certificate issuer like VeriSign or Thawte. You can also sign the certificate yourself. Self-signed certificates will not be trusted by web browsers and should not be used on public websites containing critical data. However, a self-signed certificate is good enough for internal use, e.g. for encrypting traffic to LiteSpeed Web Server's WebAdmin Console.</p> </article> </div>

It works by communicating with another server — the OCSP responder — to get verification that the certificate is valid instead of checking through certificate revocation lists (CRL).<br/><br/> OCSP stapling is a further improvement on this protocol, allowing the server to check with the OCSP responder at regular intervals instead of every time a certificate is requested. See the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OCSP_Stapling" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">OCSP Wikipedia page</a> for more details.</p> </article> </div>
