JIRA 8.20.2 SSL and Active Directory

Question

I am running Apache 2.4 on CentOS 7 and the SSL certificates are enabled/working.  I have JIRA 8.20.2 installed using the default HTTP method and would like to change it to use the SSL certificate that's installed.  Since JIRA is running on port 8081, I thought Tomcat was running its own web server, thus requires a separate configuration to utilize SSL?

My .crt file is in /etc/pki/tls/certs/wildcard-2021.crt and the bundle is in the same folder.  The .key (PEM) file is in /etc/pki/tls/private/wildcard-2021.key.

Second, I'd like to utilize Active Directory for authorization/login of users.  Does JIRA have it's own AD module or is there some sort of tie-in for PAM authorization?  If I change the login method, will it still allow the admin user that was used for the installation or do the existing logins "go away"?

I have the " protocol="org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11NioProtocol" maxHttpHeaderSize="8192" SSLEnabled="true" maxTh reads="150" minSpareThreads="25" enableLookups="false" disableUploadTimeout="true" acceptCount="100" scheme="https" secure="true" sslEnabledProtocols="TLSv1.2,TLSv1.3" clientAuth="false" useBodyEncodingForURI= "true" keyAlias="jira" keystoreFile="/var/atlassian/application-data/jira/.keystore" keystorePass="changeit" keystoreType="JKS"/> in server.xml. I've also run "keytool -importcert -alias jira"on the .crt file and restarted the server. It's not answering requests on https://servername.blahblah.com:8443. I'm not sure what else to do.
