Was alerted to an issue with SSM7 this AM the Smart Software Manager On-Prem version 7 when installed with the System Profile STIG MODE (newly introduced) breaks https. Reports of not being able to access https://<ip-address>:8443/admin.
The work around at the moment is to re-install with the with the standard profile. Telnet over 80/443/8443 all responded with connection failure.
Also there are several documentation defects in the install guide

The software is supported on esxi 5.5 or higher (per TAC).
