SSL can be embedded in DNS - DNS is Network level , Not Http Level

DNS is LEVEL4 - N/W Layer

HTTPS/SSL is Layer 7(6)  - Above 4


So, DNS is merely Server resolving , it does not know anything at SSL TLS HTTPS level

So, We direct DNS to Load Balancer 

Load Balancer has a listener which redirects traffic internally 

Load Balancer is at TCP Port 80

TCP Port 80 redirects to Port 443 at Load balancer Level

here at LB SSL offloading Happens


PFX File, CER File is issued to "DNS Name " and "Subject Alternative Names" to FQDN of Host Backends


DNS has Record Set Types:

A record

CNAME record

NS record
