| http-01-> It is an http based challenge it requires the CrushFTP to have an HTTP server item available from outside on port 80. Make you sure the https redirect is turned off. V01 can only do http based challenge.\\ |
| tls_alpn-> (!!! Only works with Java 11+) It is a tls based challenge it requires the CrushFTP to have an HTTPS server item available from outside on port 443.\\ |

| Domains : Sets the SAN (Subject Alternate Name) field of the cert, can be a single domain name, or multiple, in that case multiple domains should be separated with a comma. Subdomains are actually totally different domains than the parent domain, in case of a multi-domain cert, need to specify each subdomain name individually. That until Letsencrypt will allow wildcard certs.\\ |

| Once done, and full success, there is another step. On Preferences_>Encryption_>SSL page, will need to supply the same full path to the keystore (.jks) file and the passwords you entered on the Letsencrypt plugin. The plugin only generates the key store, but doesn't apply it. Once done, test, if successful, save, then restart the HTTPS port or the CrushFTP service, to actually load the cert. Then can test with a browser.\\ |
