Can the same wildcard SSL certificate be used on different IP addresses and/or boxes?

Example:

Wildcard SSL certificate for *.example.com installed on two different boxes.

hostEU.example.com  A  60.70.80.90
hostUS.example.com  A  200.210.220.240

I assume this is a perfectly valid scenario, where the actual hostnames do not reside on the same IP (or even the same box for that sake).

Is my assumption correct?


Solution 1:

Yes, there is not technical limitation for this; except if your CA prohibits this use explicitly.

The most frequently limitation given by a CA is on the "physical servers", but may be someone limits even on IP basis.

As an example, Geotrust Wildcard Ssl says:

If you need to span the wildcard certificate across multiple physical servers, you may purchase additional licenses.
