I recently enabled SSL connection between forwarders and indexers. When I check the metrics log for a UF with SSL enabled , i see this in the data. The connection type is showing as cookedSSL but ssl=fasle. Does that mean the connection is not secure? And the surprising part is, i see events in metrics.log for the same host with ssl=true entries. I am confused.
