As far as i know, you need a specific certificate for the XG itself.

Captive Portal is a hostname based Portal. So to call, it will use the hostname of XG (for example "hostname = XG).

You would need a DNS record for XG and a certificate for XG as certificate common name. Than use this certificate for user facing facilities.
