DNS and SSL Certificate
BEWARE!
Configuring the deployment of ArcGIS Enterprise 10.9 with a Custom Domain and SSL certificate can only be performed during the initial deployment in CloudBuilder. The ArcGIS Enterprise application cannot be updated later to use a Custom Domain and SSL certificate due to the federation that the application performs during its installation and setup which cannot be easily modified.
