Can't disable API feature on Nexus 9k (Possible Bug)?

[gunnydaman]

Hello Everyone,

On my nexus 9k I have run into a problem where I can't stop the NXAPI feature from being accessed. Even with the feature disabled, I can open a web browser and get to it via https. Is this a known bug or is there something further I need to do to stop users from getting to NXAPI?

Thanks,

Matt

P.S. I running version 9.3(5)

Hello!

Do you happen to have FIPS mode enabled on this switch? If so, this behavior may be due to software defect CSCvy57340, which is resolved in NX-OS software releases 9.3(8) and later as well as 10.2(1) and later.

I hope this helps - thank you!

Thanks for reply. Found out it is a bug. Disabled the feature and re-enabled and this fixed the problem. 

Thanks
