Cloudfront SNI Formatted
SNI Custom SSL relies on the SNI extension of the Transport Layer Security protocol,
which allows multiple domains to serve SSL traffic over the same IP address by including the hostname
viewers are trying to connect to. As with Dedicated IP Custom SSL, CloudFront delivers content from
each Amazon CloudFront edge location and with the same security as the Dedicated IP Custom SSL feature.
SNI Custom SSL works with most modern browsers, including Chrome version 6 and later (running on Windows XP
and later or OS X 10.5.7 and later), Safari version 3 and later (running on Windows Vista and later or Mac OS X 10.5.6
and later), Firefox 2.0 and later, and Internet Explorer 7 and later (running on Windows Vista and later).
Older browsers that do not support SNI cannot establish a connection with CloudFront to load the HTTPS version
of your content. SNI Custom SSL is available at no additional cost beyond standard CloudFront data transfer and request fees.
