Exchange 2013 - Import SSL Certificate on F5 for Client Access

  • Article

In Exchange 2013 or any version, if you want to have your clients access services like OWA and ActiveSync, for example, you require a good SSL Certificate that needs to be imported onto your Exchange Server.

The same goes for your load balancer. In this case, it is our F5 or it can be a KEMP load balancer you have running.

In this example, we will be looking at importing the SSL cert on the F5 (load balancer). Launch your browser to log in to the F5.

In the top right-hand corner, click the Import button. A window, as shown above, will appear. In this list, you can choose Certificate or PKCS as shown above. As your SSL certificate should have a password, we chose this one.

Give the certificate a Name and then click Choose File. Browse to where you have the certificate saved.

Next, enter the Password and click Import. Once complete it will show up in the list of certificates.
