Question: Does nutanix use Self Signed Cert or CA-cert by default? 

 

Hello @CarloNX,

By default we use self-signed certificate, but it is recommended to replace the default supplied self-signed certificate with a CA signed certificate.

Oh yes, thank you! So it means i need to purchase a CA signed certificate right?


Yes, that is correct. CA-signed certificates can only be obtained from a Certificate Authority.
