Multiple SSL domains on the same IP address and same port?

I have the following situation:

  • first domain: test.domain.com
  • IP: 1.2.3.4
  • Port: 443
  • SSL: Purchased from godaddy and specific to that domain
  • Works fine no issues.

I would like to add another site:

  • test2.domain.com
  • IP: the same
  • Port: can be different
  • SSL: different since I can't use the SSL above because it's specific to the site above.

Now, when I add the HTTPS binding to the second site with IP:Port combination it appears to always load the first SSL ignoring the second certificate.

How can I add second SSL binding to the same IP using a "different" certificate? Can this be done?

With most of current software you can't have different certificates on the server for the same IP (modern TLS versions have extension for handling this problem, but most clients don't use it yet). So your only options are (a) obtain certificate for several domains (wildcard certificate or alike) or get additional IPs for the system.

You could get a Wildcard SSL Cert. That way it would handle all domain names at *.domain.com.

But, the real problem has more to do with webserver configuration. With Apache, you can't have different names for a SSL encrypted server. You would have to run a second SSL encrypted server with a different port. With a different port, you could actually use the same name.
