11.10. Custom Domains and SSL Certificates

Custom domain aliases are designated so that applications can use custom DNS entries rather than the domain generated by the system. Note that a CNAME record with your DNS provider is required for custom aliases to work correctly.
Custom SSL certificates with domain aliases are available for added security, but must be enabled by a system administrator. See the OpenShift Enterprise Administration Guide at https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation for more information.
