Replacing a Horizon Access Point certificate

Horizon Access Points differ from other Horizon components and App Volumes Manager servers in how you replace their certificate. The Horizon Access Point configuration is modified using JSON requests to the Access Point REST API, the syntax for which is provided in the VMware document Deploying and Configuring Access Point (https://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/view_pubs.html).

Horizon Access Points require a certificate with SAN that include the FQDN of the individual Access Point, the FQDN used on any load balancers in front of the Access Point (if applicable), and the Access Point IP address. Using the method outlined in Requesting a certificate with Subject Alternative Names, that would require a certificate attributes string similar to:

san:dns=horap01.vjason.local&dns= horizon.vjason.com&ipaddress=172.16.100.5
