5.22. SSL on VPS

Hosting does not provide the ability to automatically install SSL certificates for sites hosted on VPS or dedicated servers. All operations for obtaining and connecting certificates for such sites must be performed directly by the server tenant himself or by third-party administrators hired by him.

Information that may be useful in this situation:

• In many control panels The option to automatically install a free certificate is available.
• You can install a free SSL certificate from Let’s Encrypt via the console using Certbot using instructions.
• You can independently obtain a free certificate on specialized resources, for example, on the website SSL For Free or ZeroSSL.
• A paid certificate can be purchased from any of the certification authorities.
