On the web site, go to Properties -> Web Site and under "Web Site identification" press the Advanced button. Add an entry under "Multiple SSL identities for this web site".

Additional to Mathais's response at https://serverfault.com/a/382726/40488 you should add the certificate into the trust store for Internet Explorer, and whatever other browsers you are using. This is important because more and more browsers are configured to deny self-signed certificates.

(Instructions for Internet Explorer on Windows 7)

  1. Save the certificate on your desktop.
  2. Right Click it
  3. Select Install Certificate
  4. Select Next
  5. Select Automatically select the certificate store
  6. Select Next
  7. Select Finish
