Hello All!

I am using Tufin and get an error while connecting it to CP 80.20, I should run the command

"api restart" on my CP.

Never used API, can someone please tell me if it can be negative impact on the management or gateways...

Thanks !

The mgmt API just runs on the management server - therefore no impact on the gateway side. Honestly; I never monitored the management server's performance when restarting the API... but the impact should be nearly 0.

I was almost sure but needed another opinion 🙂

Thanks !

Other than interrupting the availability of the API endpoint temporarily, it should have no impact on managing with SmartConsole or the gateways.
