Purchase a Domain (for example, cloudcxdemo.net) from the domain provider (for example, GoDaddy.) for your CX.
Add an A record in the Domain DNS zone, and resolve the Domain to your CX IP, for example: point the cx.cloudcxdemo.net to CX server IP.
Purchase a certificate from the trust certificate provider for your domain, for example, Digicert, Thawte, GeoTrust; If you want to make it easier to manage multi-tenants, you'd better apply for a wildcard certificate.
Generate the CSR file and private key file according to the certificate provider’s guide, and keep the files. Usually, you will have two files: the certificate and the private key. Note, please choose the certificates for Nginx.
Rename the private key file as yourname_cx.key.
Submit the CRS file to the certificate provider, and download the certificate files after your certificates were approved. This step will end up with two files: Intermediate CA certificate and SSL certificate. Note, some providers don't have the Intermediate CA certificate.
Please ignore this step if your provider doesn't provide the Intermediate CA certificate. Use a plain text editor, for example Windows Notepad (do not use MS Word) to open the Intermediate CA file and SSL certificate file, copy . Copy the Intermediate CA contents to append to the SSL certificate file, and rename the SSL certificate file as yourname_cx.pem. In the Linux environment, you can use the below commands to combine the certificate files.

Important: Please confirm the Certificate is a full-Chain certificate, otherwise some third-party platforms such as WhatsApp will reject the verification request. After the server is initialized, you can test the certificate integrity through the following test sites:
For example: https://www.sslchecker.com/sslchecker
