ZeroSSL
In this setup step, we will configure a certificate order from the certificate issuance provider ZeroSSL. A certificate is mandatory for a TLS connection.
To provide this node with a certificate you can either upload a certificate manually or let anynode acquire it automatically using a certification issuance service.
It is important to note that the certificate must include the valid SBC FQDN.
Trusted certificates can be generated and renewed automatically within anynode's frontend, including the option to do so without incurring additional costs, especially when using trusted certificate authorities like Let's Encrypt or Zero SSL.
It is worth noting that anynode accepts any certificate format and will convert it internally into the correct one if you manually upload a certificate.
Click on Order a certificate from a certification issuance service.
You have a choice of several certification issuance providers at this point:
-
Let's Encrypt
-
ZeroSSL
-
GoDaddy
Depending on the chosen service, the registration process for the ACME account will differ in the next input screen. We will introduce all three certification issuance providers, and we will proceed with ZeroSSL.

The node interconnection assistant will create an account for a certification issuance provider like Let's Encrypt. For other services like ZeroSSL or GoDaddy, an external account with an identifier and key is required.
You need to enter the email address for your ZeroSSL account at this point.
As described in the Prerequisites chapter, you will need your ZeroSSL EAB credentials for ACME clients here.
