hello,
I am administering hundreds of ESXi (currently at 6.5 u1g) servers via vcenter (6.5 u1g) and was recently tasked to replace all self signed/vmca issued certificates used by esxi with certificates signed by our internal CA. Given the amount of work that's involved in that, I am exploring a way of disabling UI logon page directly on ESXi hosts.
Does anyone know how to achieve this?
The only KB's for stopping HTTP/S I've found, refer to old version of esx and the command provided by vmware support for esxi does not work (vim-cmd proxysvc/remove_service "/ui" "httpsWithRedirect").
Enabling lockdown mode does not turn off UI logon page.
thanks for your input.
