How do I secure the Events Service server

How do I generate SSL certificate for the Event Service server?  There are documentation on how to secure the  Controller and EUM servers but I didn't find documentation on how to generate the .CSR certificate for the event service.  Our Event Service SSL certificate has expired  and I am not sure how it was created and imported on the keystore. 

Thank you.

Hi Ryan,

Thank you so much for your quick reply, I greatly appreciate it.  Your reply was helpful and reconfirmed what I was planning to do.  I also found this document for the controller and I followed steps 

5 to 9 but had to modify the file path for the event service server. 

 https://docs.appdynamics.com/20.x/en/appdynamics-application-performance-monitoring-platform/secure-... as guidance.

It looks like generating the CSR is the same for any application, I just had to make sure I change the file paths per my event service server.  I hope that made that clear on the documentation. 

Thank you again for your help!

Hi @Ferhana.Siraj,

I'm not sure what version your Controller is on, but I only found documentation for this on 4.5. 

https://docs.appdynamics.com/4.5.x/en/appdynamics-application-performance-monitoring-platform/events...

Can you tell me what Controller version you're running and I'll see what I can find out.
