== The free SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;center&amp;gt;[[File:LetsEncrypt.png | 500px]]&amp;lt;/center&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Let's Encrypt extension of Plesk allows you to secure your server with free SSL/TLS certificates from Let's Encrypt, a free and open source Certificate Authority. &amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You can secure the mail server, as well as any hosted domain, subdomain and domain alias. &amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Securing your server with Let's Encrypt certificates is quick and easy. It only takes a few clicks from the Plesk interface. &amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The Let's Encrypt extension automatically keeps all issued certificates up to date.&amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Requirements for the installation of the certificate == &amp;lt;!--T:2--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To install a Let's encrypt SSL certificate, there are certain prerequisites:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The domain name must point to the IP address of the hosting&lt;br /&gt;
* The site must be reachable&lt;br /&gt;
The domain name must point to the IP address of the hosting * The site must be reachable * Know the service that manages the DNS zone for your domain name&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b&amp;gt;Votre zone DNS peut être gérée par un service dans votre espace client Ikoula ou encore par service Plesk de l'hébergement.&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To find out which service manages the zone, the site [https://dnschecker.org/ DNS Checker] references the names of the servers.&amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
You must enter the domain name in the field provided for this purpose and select the NS field.&amp;lt;/br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Dns_checker.png | 500px]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''The DNS zones managed on Plesk have as name servers : ''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    ns1.ikoula.nl&lt;br /&gt;
    ns2.host2vps.com&lt;br /&gt;
    linhebXX.ikoula.com (for a Linux server)&lt;br /&gt;
    winhebXX.ikoula.com (for a Windows server)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'' The DNS zones managed by the client space have name servers : ''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
    ns4.ikoula.com&lt;br /&gt;
    ns5.ikoula.com&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Setting up the certificate on a domain managed by Plesk == &amp;lt;!--T:3--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You need to be connected to the Plesk interface to perform these operations. [[ Accéder à mon interface Plesk ]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Web Site and Domains tab, go to ''SSL/TLS Certificates'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Plesk_SSL.png | 1000px ]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then select ''Install a free basic certificate provided by Let's Encrypt'''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Plesk_LetsEncrypt.png]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new page will open and you will have to enter a valid e-mail address if you have not done so.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Plesk_Secure.png]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Activate the desired options.&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
* Secure the domain name&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;This option can be disabled if the site is managed externally and you want to use the SSL certificate only for the email service.&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Protect the Wildcard domain (including www and webmail)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;If you use subdomains and want to protect them with the same certificate as well.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This option allows the automatic creation of a TXT record in the DNS zone.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It is only available if the domain's DNS zone is administered in Plesk.&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
* Enable the option &amp;quot;protect the www subdomain for the domain and all selected aliases&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
* If necessary, enable the &amp;quot;Protect webmail on this domain&amp;quot; option.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;i&amp;gt;This way, the webmail will also be secured.&amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
    &lt;br /&gt;
* Assign the certificate to the mail domain&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''Once these steps have been completed, it takes 10 to 30 minutes for DNS replication.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b style=&amp;quot;color:#FF7828&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Une fois ce délais écoulé, il faut cliquer sur &amp;quot;Recharger&amp;quot; et le certificat sera généré.''&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Setting up the certificate on a domain managed by the Customer Centre == &amp;lt;!--T:5--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The installation of the Let's Encrypt certificate will not be very different from the previous steps.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unlike the DNS zone managed on the Plesk server, the DNS entries are not automatic and must be entered manually from your [https://commande.ikoula.com/ Customer area ]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Plesk_Wildcard.png]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the Dns Management Migrated service, choose your domain name to access the DNS zone management.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You then need to create a TXT field for the domain '_acme-challenge.yourdomainname.tld' with the content requested by Plesk.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here you need to add the record ''tiDYhh0klLPltq_lPAeKb9jmuxsUyZ-1WWnUXQnJX-s''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:DNS_Plesk_SSL.png]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before reloading the emission request, it is necessary to check the good propagation of the record '_acme-challenge.votrerenomdedomaine.tld'.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
''Once these operations have been carried out, it takes 10 to 30 minutes for the DNS replication.''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The website [https://dnschecker.org/ DNS Checker] site also references the TXT records.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You must enter &amp;lt;i&amp;gt;_acme-challenge.yourdomainname.tld &amp;lt;/i&amp;gt;and choose the TXT option &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;b style=&amp;quot;color:#FF7828&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Une fois ce délais écoulé, il faut cliquer sur &amp;quot;Recharger&amp;quot; et le certificat sera généré.''&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Renewal of the certificate ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Certificate renewal is automatic if the DNS zone is managed by PLESK, otherwise the certificate must be renewed every 3 months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you wish to opt for an automatic renewal and your zones are managed by your customer area, you can contact the technical support to request a migration to a more recent server.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
