Hyper-V Replica Self Signed cert authentication on different domains

I want to enable replication from a Hyper-V server to another Hyper-V server at the datacenter. But the two Hyper-V servers are not part of the same AD network. I've been looking into some articles. But I'm still a little confused. The server at the datacenter is already receiving replication from a Hyper-V on the same AD network. No problem here.

Do I need a SAN certificate that will have all domains listed?

Thanks

Thank you for the enlightenment. I have a better understanding. Two last questions.

1 - In my understanding if many source servers from different domains are replicated on the Replica server only the certificate created locally (from the replica server) will be selected in Hyper-V settings/Replica configuration. But if each certificate from each Hyper-V source server is exported and imported in the Hyper-V replica server it can't work as only one certificate can be selected in Hyper-V.

2 - If I use a public (digicert) ssl certificate on the Replica server do I still need to export self signed certificate from the Hyper-V source servers?

Thank again
