The Manage Installed SSL Hosts Table

In WHM, System administrators can create and install SSL certificates for their users' cPanel accounts. cPanel users can manage the certificate(s) that correspond to their domain(s).

To manage SSL certificates, navigate to the SSL/TLS Manager screen and click the Setup an SSL certificate to work with your site. You will be taken to the Manage Installed SSL Hosts section of the SSL/TLS Manager: Manage SSL Hosts screen.
