Update creating-certificates.html.md (#4780)
In case `verify_server_hostname` is set in the configuration, Consul checks the certificate against  `server.<datacenter>.<domain>`.

The name suggested by the guide generates errors like the following:
```
2018/10/10 12:42:20 [ERR] consul: Failed to confirm peer status for consul-3: rpc error getting client: failed to get conn: x509: certificate is valid for server.node.consul.labs, localhost, not server.consul.labs. Retrying in 16s...
```

Removing the `node` part from the certificate permits them to work also when that option is set.

Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable.

Consul provides several key features:

  • Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.

  • Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.

  • Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.

  • Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.

  • Service Segmentation - Consul Connect enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization.

Consul runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows. A commercial version called Consul Enterprise is also available.

Please note: We take Consul's security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in Consul, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at security@hashicorp.com.
