Wildcard - Full Domain

This is a type of standard SSL certificate at Gandi, and so it is ideal for protecting websites that do not perform financial transactions. The full domain standard SSL certificate lets you secure a domain name and any subdomains.

A full domain certificate secures the bare domain (apex) and unlimited first-level subdomains: example.com and *.example.com ; but it does not secure higher levels such as *.*.example.com and so on. To cover say *.sub.example.com, you will need to buy another full domain certificate. To cover www.sub.example.com, you will need to buy another single-address certificate.

Unlike the single-address standard SSL certificates, the full domain version lets you secure more than one address on a single domain name. For example:

• www.example.com

• admin.example.com

• photos.example.com

• videos.example.com

• forum.example.com

If you need to secure multiple domain names through one certificate, such as www.example.com and www.example.net, then you will need one of our several address certificates, as opposed to a full domain certificate.
