How does SSL work?

Anyone could be kind enough to tell me the detail logic of how SSL works?

I am NOT talking about the procedures of requests/installing a SSL cert, instead of the logic.

I just installed a cert successfully for my website, but have no idea what are those terms and procedures I've done.

- RSA Private Key
- RSA Public Key
- Certificate Request
- Signature Algorithm
- Public Key Algorithm
- Modulus
- Exponent
- Netscape Cert Type

Thx!
