I'm using Chrome as my browser on Windows. I'm running Kibana 7.8.0 and I've created the digital certs and am using SSL. When I configure Chrome to only allow secure connections running TLS 1.1 or above, I receive an error message in Chrome that the localhost refused the connection with Kibana. When I turn off the TLS 1.1 or higher requirement in Chrome, Kibana works fine. How do I configure Kibana to use TLS 1.1 or higher? ---

Problem solved. When I configure Chrome to only accept SSL connections using TLS 1.2 or higher, everything works fine. I saw where Elastic no longer supports TLS 1.0 and 1.1. When I went up to TLS 1.2 as the minimum acceptable protocol everything worked fine. ---
