You can modify the Nginx configuration file to ensure that App Volumes Manager accepts connections only from specified TLS versions.
App Volumes Manager uses SSL and TLS to communicate with servers and App Volumes agents. See Using SSL Certificates with App Volumes Manager.
Prerequisites
- You must have administrator privileges on the machine where App Volumes Manager is installed.
- Locate the nginx.conf file and create a backup of the file. The default location for nginx.conf is C:\Program Files (x86)\CloudVolumes\Manager\nginx\conf\.
Procedure
Example: Configure TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2 Protocols
In this example, App Volumes Manager will accept connections only from agents that use TLS v1.1 and TLS v1.2 protocols, as specified in thessl_protocols
entry in the Nginx configuration file.
