https SharePoint 2010 Site

Below are the steps to enable SSL on SharePoint 2010 site.

While creating the new Web Application, please make sure the following properties are selected / configured as mentioned below:

Authentication

<Your Web site Name>

Security Configuration

Authentication Provider: NTLM

Allow Anonymous: No

Use Secure Socket Layer (SSL): Yes

And make sure any other properties are required based on your requirement, and then click OK to create a new Web Application.

Step 2: Now add a new Site Collection inside the newly created Web Application.

Central Administration -> Create Site Collection -> Choose the newly created Web Application and then create your Site Collection.

Step 3: Set the Certificate

For enabling the SSL, you need to specify a Certificate in the server which contains the public key and a private key. For this, go to Internet Information Services (IIS / inetmgr.exe) and select the newly created Site. Click on the Bindings link from the right side.

In the Site Bindings dialog box, select the https item and click the Edit button.

In the appearing dialog select the Certificate from drop down list.

Click OK button to continue.

Step 4: Test the URL.

Now you are ready to test the HTTPS URL. Open a browser and enter the URL of the web site. You can also use the browse link from the IIS.

Once you hit the Continue link, site will be prompting you for the user Credentials. Once you submit the correct user credentials, you will be re-directed to the SharePoint site.

If you are able to see the page, then it means that the SSL has been configured correctly to your SharePoint site.
