You are configuring a SharePoint environment to support SharePoint apps for Litware, Inc. The SharePoint servers use a load balancer for incoming requests. You need to ensure that all connections to…

A DNS CNAME record for sc.LitwareApps.com creates the service connection alias required for the SharePoint app domain, enabling proper routing for app-related service calls.

A single SSL certificate for AppHost.LitwareApps.com covers only that one specific hostname and cannot secure the dynamically generated unique subdomains SharePoint assigns to each installed app, making a wildcard certificate necessary instead.

A wildcard SSL certificate for *.LitwareApps.com covers all dynamically generated app subdomains - since each app receives a unique subdomain - ensuring every app connection is encrypted without requiring individual certificates per app.

A DNS forward lookup zone for LitwareApps.com must exist so the DNS server can resolve any hostname within that domain, including the wildcard app subdomains that SharePoint generates at runtime.

An A record for the static hostname AppHost.LitwareApps.com addresses only that single endpoint, while SharePoint apps require wildcard DNS support to resolve the unique per-app subdomains that are created dynamically.
