How to connect to an availability group Listener in SQL Server?
SQL Server driver support for certificate Subject Alternative Name is planned for ADO.NET (SqlClient), Microsoft JDBC, and SQL Native Client (SNAC). An X.509 certificate must be configured for each participating server node in the failover cluster with a list of all availability group listeners set in the Subject Alternate Name of the certificate.
Can you have more than one listener in SQL Server?

How does always on availability group work with DNN listener?
You can configure an Always On availability group by using a failover cluster instance (FCI) as one of the replicas. For this configuration to work with the DNN listener, the failover cluster instance must also use the DNN as there is no way to put the FCI virtual IP address in the AG DNN IP list.
