Enable wildcard SSL certificate for the subdomains through the command prompt

A wildcard SSL certificate can be applied for the all the sub-domains having same end-domain name hosted on the Windows server using same IP and port combination.The certificate can be installed only on the end-domain name. In order to enable the SSL certificate for the sub-domains for example: 

test.demo.com through command prompt, please execute the following command :

C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript.exe adsutil.vbs set /w3svc/<site identifier>/SecureBindings ":443:<host header>" 


For example:
C:\Inetpub\AdminScripts>cscript.exe adsutil.vbs set /w3svc/3/SecureBindings ":443:test.demo.com"
