Martin's blog is going to be far more in depth than something I can add 
here. I would suggest going through that. It deals with self-signed certs, 
so if you need something different, I can write something up for you that 
covers the differences. 

The short version of what you need to do:
* make sure ServerName is the same on all foreman servers in a cluster
* make sure websocket ssl certs are the same on all foreman servers in a 
cluster
* make sure they're talking to the same backend (DB)
* make sure you set the same secret token (for auth purposes)
* if you're using a proxy (i.e. ha proxy), you won't need dns_alt_names, 
but you can still use them. If you're using only a LB (i.e. F5 w/o 
proxying), then you want dns_alt_names. 

I realize my comments about smart proxy are incomplete. Using an externally 
signed cert, we ran in to issues where the smart proxy needed the same 
ssl_ca (/etc/puppet/foreman.yaml) and ssl_ca_file 
(/etc/foreman-proxy/settings.yaml) file as the "ssl_ca_file" on the Foreman 
server (in /etc/foreman/settings.yaml). This only happened with an external 
cert, not a self-signed one from the puppet CA.
