 Description   

This would be analogous to the backup and monitoring agent configuration pages:
https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/reference/backup-agent/
https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/v1.4/reference/monitoring-agent/

Important sections to include:
[Ops Manager / MMS] Server SSL Settings (mirror approach used for Monitoring agent)
1) sslTrustedMMSServerCertificate
By default the Automation Agent will use the trusted root CAs installed on the system. If the agent cannot find the trusted root CAs, configure these settings manually.

The path on disk that contains the trusted certificate authority certificates in PEM format. The agent will use this certificate to verify that the agent is communicating with the designated [Ops Manager / MMS] HTTP Service. For example:

sslTrustedMMSServerCertificate=/etc/mongodb-mms/mms-certs.pem

2) sslRequireValidMMSServerCertificates
Type: boolean

You can disable certificate verification by setting this value to false. That configuration is only recommended for testing purposes as it makes connections susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks.

HTTP Proxy
httpProxy
Type: string

To connect to the [Ops Manager / MMS] HTTP Service via a proxy, enter the URL of the proxy here. For example:

httpProxy=http://example-proxy.com:8080
