Success when displaye ""Successfully received certificate"

# The following certificate is obtained under [/etc/letsencrypt/live/<FQDN>/] as described in the message

※ Obtaining a Let's Encrypt certificate when the web server is not running

It is a prerequisite that the server on which the work is to be performed is accessible from the Internet at port 80.

#Use the simple Web server function by specifying [--standalone].
#-d [FQDN for which you want to get a certificate] # FQDN (Fully Qualified Domain Name) : Host Name. Fully Qualified Domain Name
#If there are multiple FQDNs for which you want to obtain certificates, specify multiple -d [FQDNs for which you want to obtain certificates

Renewing certificates already obtained
# Renew all certificates with an expiration date of less than 30 days
# If you want to renew regardless of the number of days remaining on the expiration date, specify [--force-renewal] as well

1.2 Automatic renewal of certificates (Let's Encrypt)

①Pre-registration testing
Test the automatic renewal with the following --dry-run option. With this option, the certificate is not renewed and only the operation is tested, so there is no need to worry about getting caught in the limit of the number of times a certificate can be obtained.
