Hi folks,

Is it possible to enable the below parameters in the web.conf file while using a self signed certificate?
sslVerifyServerCert = [true|false]
sslAltNameToCheck = <string>

ERROR: certificate validation: self signed certificate

Note:
I also configured the openssl.cnf as per the below link:

So, I assume it is not possible to check SAN while using a self signed certificate?
