SSL Scanner
If the Common Name in a certificate is, e. g.
abcde.com
, but the Web
server’s URL is in fact
www.abcde.com
, no match is achieved.
•
Wildcard matches host name
Compares the wildcard used in a certificate to represent a Common Name
to the host name. So, e. g. the wildcard expression
*.ccc
.de matches
www.ccc.de
.
If a match is achieved, the configured action will be executed.
•
Certificate is expired for more than ... days
Checks if a certificate has expired. If more than the number of days config-
ured here have elapsed since expiration of the certificate, the configured
action will be executed. A grace period may allow the use of the certificate
even after it has expired.
Enter the desired number of days in the input field provided with this option.
•
Certificate is revoked
Checks if a certificate has been revoked. For this purpose, the Certificate
Revocation List (CRL) is used. If the certificate has been revoked, the
configured action will be executed.
•
Revocation status is unresolvable
The reason why the revocation status is unresolvable could be that the cor-
responding certificate authority or the path leading to the Certificate Revo-
cation List (CRL) is not known.
