The friendly name of a certificate can be helpful when multiple certificates with similar subjects exist in a certificate store. Friendly names are properties in the X.509 certificate store that associate aliases with certificates so they can be easily identified. If you installed the Connect service on multiple computers, complete this task on each computer that hosts the service.

You can restrict certificates used for BlackBerry Connect to a Friendly Name by completing the following actions:

1. If you do not have one, create and enroll a certificate.
2. Change the certificate friendly name and description.
3. Setting the new certificate friendly name string value in the BlackBerry Connect Server configuration file (GoodConnectServer.exe.config).

If you do not already have a certificate, you can create and verify a BEMS SSL certificate for Skype for Business. For more information, see SSL certificate requirements for Skype for Business in the Installation content.
