A Wildcard SSL certificate is engineered to secure a single domain and an unlimited number of its first-level subdomains. Wildcard SSL takes the work out of managing dozens of single-domain SSL certificates. You’re totally free to use additional subdomains at any time during the life-cycle of the certificate.
Every Wildcard SSL certificate begins with an asterisk * (or wildcard). The wildcard represents any valid first-level subdomain of the same base domain.
A wildcard certificate for *.mydomain.com will work for secure.mydomain.com, mail.mydomain.com, support.mydomain.com and vpn.mydomain.com, but not ftp.mydomain.net.

Unlike Multi-Domain SSL certificates, Wildcard SSL certificates allow you to secure just one domain (example.com), but with an unlimited number of first-level subdomains (sub1.example.com, sub2.example.com, subx.example.com). A Multi-Domain certificate, on the other hand, will support a mixture of different domain names (mysite.com, mystore.net, mail.outlook.org).
Just like a regular CSR except that every CSR for a Wildcard certificate must begin with an asterisk (*.example.com, *.shop.example.com). We've put together some detailed instructions. Find out How to Generate a CSR for a Wildcard SSL Certificate.
No. Wildcard certificates must always begin with an asterisk and there can only be one asterisk. Additionally, you cannot get a wildcard for *.*.example.com.

You'll need to export the private key, server certificate (public key) and any intermediate CA certificates from the first server and then import to additional servers. This is easy to do If you're using all Windows servers. From the first Windows server export your certificate keys to a PFX file and import to other Windows servers.
