First, before strarting the install process, you have to create a record typa A under your internal DNS server.
In our case, I’ve created a record “A” VCSA.customer.local 192.9.215.x (192.9. ????? why this wrong address in a LAN enveriement? I’m sorry, but at the beginning, this customer was supported by someone that didn’t understand the networking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network ).
Open your DNS server and create the record “A”

At this point, your VCSA is running on your host, but we need to finish some setup steps..

Now connect to https://vcsa.xxxxxxxx.local:443
At this point, when we try to connect to the VCSA, the receive a certificate error.
To resolve this issue, we nee to install the certificare chain of our VCSA
