Overwrite certificate​

You cannot register multiple certificates using the same domain. If you need to change the certificate for the same domain, you can do so by overwriting the certificate.

When registering a new certificate in the Certificate menu, you can check whether a certificate that is the same as the domain of the certificate you want to register is registered. If a certificate with the same domain already exists, a pop-up will appear to check whether to apply certificate overwriting.

info
  • If you allow certificate overwriting, the certificate existing for that domain will be updated with the information of the new certificate you wish to register.
  • If there is a CDN service linked to an existing registered certificate, the CDN service linkage will remain the same even after the certificate is overwritten.

  1. Go to KakaoCloud Console > Beyond Compute Service > CDN
  2. Click the [Create certificate] button in the certificate list in the Certificate menu.
  3. Enter the information in Step 1: Certificate and click the [Next] button.
  4. If a certificate using the domain of the new certificate to register has already been registered, you can check it through the label in the certificate details in Step 2: Review.
  5. When you click the [Register] button, a certificate overwrite pop-up will appear. If you want to replace the existing certificate using the domain with the new certificate you want to register, execute certificate overwrite.
  6. Review the changes and click the [Overwrite] button.
