    you need to have trusted certificate for both xyz.com and "www.xyz.com"
    without that, browser wont make tls session with xyz.com hence will also never send l7 http request to xyz.com.

    if you dont have trusted certificate for xyz.com,
    then you wont be able to make browser-trusted ssl server on that hostname.
