Actually it seems there is a mixup in the original text between DN (Distinguished Name) and CN (Common Name). The former is a generic term for a structured X.500 name, the latter a specific field in the Subject Name of a certificate, which is technically a DN. The convention used to be that the CN field must match the DNS name of the server in a server TLS certificate, but this feature is indeed deprecated and the DNS name extension should be used instead. |
