Description

As described in this issue #41 https doesn't work on station.massa:33035. This create errors when using the node inside station and exploring website served in https as calling a http content from a https site is a [mixed content](https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/Security/Mixed_content?utm_source=mozilla&utm_medium=firefox-console-errors&utm_campaign=default) security issue.

In issue #41 we have implemented a quick fix: instead of using http://station.massa:33035, we use http://localhost:33035 which doesn't rise mixed content error.
But it would be good to be able to use https on nodes deployed via node manager plugin and use station.massa:33035 url for that.
We need to investigate why the certificate doesn't work. It may be related to commit 57ee468 in [station](https://github.com/massalabs/station) that aimed at fixing ssl certificate renewal.

Research direction

Start by reviewing issue #41 and commit 57ee468 in the station repository, then investigate why HTTPS fails for station.massa:33035 while localhost avoids the mixed-content error. Done means the node-manager deployment serves HTTPS at the station.massa URL with a working certificate and no mixed-content errors.
