Configure Security Settings for VMware NSX by Using NSX API

You configure TLS 1.2 protocol and disable TLS 1.1 for NSX Manager.
  1. VMW-NSX-01501
     Configure an NSX Manager node to only use the TLS 1.2 protocol.
    The change applies to all nodes in the cluster. The API service on each node restarts after the update. A delay of up to a minute between the time this API call completes and when the new configuration applies is possible.
    1. Run the GET command and save the output.
      GET https://<nsx-mgr>/api/v1/cluster/api-service
    2. In the saved output, edit the
      protocol_versions
       line to disable TLS 1.1.
      
                
      "protocol_versions": [ { "name": "TLSv1.1", "enabled": false }, { "name": "TLSv1.2", "enabled": true } ]
    3. Run the API call using curl or another REST API client with the edited initial output.
      PUT https://<nsx-mgr>/api/v1/cluster/api-service
