Getting ready

We are running a Server 2016 web server from which we will accomplish this task. There is a simple website currently running inside IIS on this server. Part of our recipe will be choosing an SSL certificate that we want to run on our website, so this recipe assumes that the certificate is already installed on your server. If you need assistance with the acquisition of the certificate itself, please refer to the Using a Certificate Signing Request to acquire your SSL certificate recipe.
