This article will teach you how to locate and view your domain's information. Underneath the report download buttons, you will find some diagnostic information that will help you decide whether you are ready to turn on the Always Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

Instructions

  1. Navigate to the Site Properties module:The Site Properties option of the Site Tools tab in the Modules drop-down menu.

    1. Expand the Modules menu

    2. Click the Site Tools tab

    3. Select Site Properties

  2. Select the Mixed Content Report tab:The Site Properties page with the Mixed Content Report tab highlighted.

  3. View Primary SSL Domain, Redirect Domains, and Unsafe Redirects:View Primary SSL Domain, Redirect Domains, and Unsafe Redirects in the Mixed Content Report.

Primary SSL Domain

  • When Always SSL is enabled, by default, all HTTP traffic to your site will be redirected to this domain:The Primary SSL Domain field on the Mixed Content Report.

  • Accordingly, this domain must have a valid SSL binding. If not, you will see an error message, and you will not be able to turn on Always SSL:The 'Oops, no valid bindings exist for this domain!' error message for the Primary SSL field.

Redirect Domains

  • This table will indicate the status of any redirects set up on your site:The table of Redirect Domains in the Mixed Content Report showing Valid SSL Binding for each domain.

  • If your site has multiple domains (such as a Department Header Package), each of these domains will need a valid SSL binding. Otherwise, any HTTP traffic to a domain without a valid binding will be redirected to the Primary SSL domain. Domains without SSL bindings will be highlighted in red. You may still choose to turn on Always SSL, but it's important to be aware that this effectively disables HTTP traffic for any domain highlighted in red.

Unsafe Redirect Domains

  • This section will only be visible if any problematic redirects are found. Because Always SSL forces a redirect from http://domain to https://domain, any redirects with absolute destination URLs indicating HTTP will result in an infinite redirect loop. If you see any redirects here, make sure they are changed to specify HTTPS before turning on Always SSL:The table of unsafe redirects found in the Mixed Content Report.
