有关HTTPS、SSL以及SSL证书的工作原理,参见
本文将演示如何在IIS中配置一个HTTPS的ASP.NET Web Application。
(1)打开Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager
(2)创建一个Self-Signed Certificate
A self-signed certificate is an identity certificate that is signed by its own creator. Certificates are signed by Certificate Authority. In general self signed certificates are fine for testing purpose but not for production.
创建self-signed certificate有两种方式:
- 使用IIS
- 使用Visual Studio的工具MakeCert.exe
本文只演示如何用IIS创建self-signed certificate。
打开IIS Manager后,双击Server Certificates。
(3)在IIS中添加一个Website
Binding下Type选择https,默认端口为443(http默认端口为80),SSL Certificate选择上面我们创建的self-signed certificate。
(4)也可以用添加Site Binding的方式实现
点击Add
(5)打开浏览器
点击地址栏旁边的小锁头,查看一下证书
(6)打开证书管理工具,查看Trusted Root Certification Authorities
可以看到在IIS中创建self-signed certificate的时候,服务器已经将它添加到Trusted Root CA中了。在客户端,你需要手动安装根证书。
(7)证书颁发机构
如果想使用浏览器信任的证书,需要使用证书颁发机构 (CA)颁发给你的证书,比如Verisign,Thawte等。Self-signed Certificate可以用于开发测试环境,不应用于生产环境。
