Configure the IIS Web Server to use SSL
To verify that a secure port is enabled on the Web Server, open the Management Console, right-click on the Web Server, and view the Web site tab, where you can see the SSL Port. Generally, the number of the secure port is 443. Verify that the port number is installed.
Important! If you are accessing this graphical user interface on Windows Server 2008, open the shortcut with Administrator permissions, even if you are logged into the system as an Administrator. For more information, see the release notes for your SiteMinder component.
The advanced authentication schemes can create virtual directories in the Web Server. These directories are automatically configured to require SSL and certificates according to the specifications of each authentication scheme. For testing purposes, you can create a test virtual directory. You can configure this virtual directory to require certificates through the Directory Security tab, Secure Communications. When testing the virtual directory, verify that the browser is asked for a certificate:
https://servername:port/virtual directory
