I'm stuck with an auth failure on simulator 9.3 when attempting to do cert based authentication using the SDK.

I used https://netapp.io/2016/11/08/certificate-based-authentication-netapp-manageability-sdk-ontap/ as a guide.

LAB93::> security login show -user-or-group-name cert_user

Vserver: LAB93
                                                                 Second

SSL Client Auth enabled got flipped back to false on me. Flipped back to true and all is right with the world again.
