Description

SSL won't work on a website if an SSL certificate hasn't been bound to all the IP addresses it's listening on. This function binds a certificate to all a website's IP addresses. Make sure you call this method after you create a website's bindings. Any previous SSL bindings on those IP addresses are deleted.

Beginning with Carbon 2.0.1, this function is available only if IIS is installed.

EXAMPLE 1

Set-IisWebsiteSslCertificate -SiteName Peanuts -Thumbprint 'a909502dd82ae41433e6f83886b00d4277a32a7b' -ApplicationID $PeanutsAppID

Binds the certificate whose thumbprint is a909502dd82ae41433e6f83886b00d4277a32a7b to the Peanuts website. It's a good idea to re-use the same GUID for each distinct application.
