-# Validation plugins
-
-A validation plugin is responsible for providing the ACME server with proof that you own the identifiers
-(host names) that you want to create a certificate for. The
-[ACMEv2 protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-acme-acme-18) defines different
-challenge types, three of which are supported by win-acme, namely
-[HTTP-01](/win-acme/reference/plugins/validation/http/),
-[DNS-01](/win-acme/reference/plugins/validation/dns/) and
-[TLS-ALPN-01](/win-acme/reference/plugins/validation/tls-alpn/).
-
-For wildcard identifiers, only DNS-01 validation is accepted by Let's Encrypt.
-
-Several other challenge types are not supported for various reasons:
-- `TLS-SNI-01/-02` - deprecated and removed
-- `PROOFOFPOSSESSION-01` - unknown
-
-## Default
-
-By default, the [self-hosting plugin](/win-acme/reference/plugins/validation/http/selfhosting) is used. \ No newline at end of file
