Custom Domain

How It Works

You can request for a custom domain name for your tenant, for example, if your company domain is abc.com, you can have the domain name as https://subdomain.abc.com. Contact IBM support for details on how to enable and configure the custom domain capability.

Steps to configure custom domains

  1. Determine the number of domains to be configured for your account and the list of custom domains. The domain names are owned by you.

  2. Decide the SSL certificate needed, which depends on whether you want to protect a single domain, multiple subdomains of a domain, or multiple domain names.

  3. Share the number of domains to be configured for your account and the list of custom domains with Software AG.

  4. IBM will create a certificate signing request (CSR) and will provide you the details.

  5. Based on the CSR, get the SSL certificates from a Certificate Authority (CA) and determine the number and type of domains you want to be protected by the certificates.

  6. Send the SSL certificates to IBM to configure the certificates on the custom domain load balancer.

  7. IBM will send you the CNAME. Using the CNAME, configure your DNS to point to the custom domain load balancer.

  8. After the configuration is complete, you can start using the custom domain to access IBM webMethods Cloud Container.
