Issue with REST API Modular Input and TLS

[fervin]

I am trying to call an API over TLS and am getting the following error:

01-15-2016 11:48:45.409 -0500 ERROR ExecProcessor - message from "python /opt/splunk/etc/apps/rest_ta/bin/rest.py" Exception performing request: [Errno 8] _ssl.c:533: EOF occurred in violation of protocol

Does anyone know what do I need to do to enable TLS 1.2 support for the REST Modular Input? Thanks in advance.

What version of Splunk are you on ?

TLS 1.2 is supported in the Splunk python runtime(2.7.9) in the latest Splunk release.

But TLS 1.2 is not supported in older Python runtimes as far as I know.
