How to generate alerts for misconfigured SSL certificates

Hello, 

Apologies if this was asked or explained elsewhere.  

I'd like to provision a monitor to catch SSL misconfigurations, but didn't get the expected behavior from the SSL certificate monitor.

Specifically, this condition didn't trigger an alert.  Instead, if configured the monitor before, then changed the configuration on our CDN to break the certificate (so it wouldn't match the host domain), the monitor couldn't detect any problems at all on a forced monitor refresh.  If we created the monitor while the certificate was not matching the web domain, it gave a configuration error.

Essentially, anytime a modern web browser is likely to throw a message that 'Your connection is not private', we want to know, and relatively quickly.  How is this possible in Site24x7?

Thanks much,

Aaron Hutton
