Dear Community,  
due to certifiactes going to get invalid, I have to activate this setting in one of my secured production servers: **verification\_mode to none**  
My Question is:  
Once activated this setting (by restarting all elasticsearch daemons since I have to touch every single elasticsearch.yml) considering I am doing this because the cerificates are going to be invalid in 24h - After that and with this setting in place will the customer still be able to connect and use Kibana?  
Thank you!!

@smm Yes, Kibana will still be able to communicate with ES, its just that SSL certs configured for ES and Kibana won't be used for handshake and validation.
