Each standalone Audio/Video (A/V) Conferencing Server requires a single default certificate. For details about the certificate requirements, see Certificate Requirements for Internal Servers.
Use the following procedure to configure the A/V Conferencing Server certificate. Repeat the procedure for each A/V Conferencing Server. The steps of this procedure describe how to configure a certificate from an Internal Enterprise Root certification authority (CA) deployed by your organization and with offline request processing. For information about obtaining certificates from an external CA, contact your IT department.
