I'll let Nelson or someone else provide the definitive answer to this, but I believe what he's saying is that, e.g., if you have three hostnames a.example.com, b.example.com, and c.example.com that are used for a given server, and you use SubjAltName, you should put all three names in the extension, as opposed to (e.g.) putting CN=a.example.com and then just b.example.com and c.example.com in SubjAltName.
