SCCM - HTTPS or HTTP communication
Hi! I have a current SCCM setup that runs on an HTTP comms (MP, SUP DP). Then recently i switch the MP and DP to HTTPS configured certificates. Do i have to enroll client certificates to the work...

christian31 For HTTPS communication between clients and site system roles such as management points and distribution points, clients require a valid workstation authentication certificate. See Plan for security in Configuration Manager and PKI certificate requirements for Configuration Manager for more information.

christian31 It may be possible, but I wouldn't recommend it... You'd have to create, export and import a unique certificate for each and every client, and you'd have to renew the certificates manually before they expire as well.

I think Cross Forest PKI would my only solution for this.- Michiel OverweelSep 08, 2020Former Employee
christian31 That would be the way to go, yes. Good luck!
