# SSL Certificate Management

The Parallels RAS Console includes a certificate management interface that allows you to manage all of your SSL certificates in one place.

Certificates are managed on a Site level. Once a certificate is added to a Site, it can be used with any RAS Secure Gateway or HALB that also exist in this Site.

To manage certificates, in the RAS Console, navigate to **Farm** > **Site** > **Certificates**. The **Certificates** tab in the right pane displays the existing certificates. When you install Parallels RAS, the \<Default> self-signed certificate is created automatically, so you will see at least this certificate in the list. The default certificate is also automatically assigned to all new RAS Secure Gateways and HALB.

The subsequent sections describe certificate management tasks in detail and provide additional certificate information and instructions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.parallels.com/landing/ras-admin-guide/v19-en-us/parallels-ras-19-administrators-guide/ssl-certificate-management.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
