Hi,

is there any possibility to use http instead of https in the Splunk Add-on for cisco ucs?
We have a problem with the strength of the certificate and cannot change it at this time.

In the ta_cisco_ucs.log we get the following error:

File "C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\Splunk_TA_cisco-ucs\bin\ta_util2\httplib2\__init__.py", line 1044, in connect
   raise SSLHandshakeError(e)
SSLHandshakeError: [SSL: SSL_NEGATIVE_LENGTH] dh key too small (_ssl.c:604)

So we would try to connect with http...

Regards,
Maik

You can enable the splunk at https or http port by adding the stanza in server.conf file located in

/Splunk_Home/etc/apps/system/local

[sslConfig]
enableSplunkdSSL = true|false

I suggest that you configure your http server to listen on a separate port, and that you use that port in the Add-on UCS Manager configuration fields.

Thank you for your reply. The ucs has the http port configured (default 80) and is listening on that port. But where can I change the port in the splunk add-on?
