Pmm client and server connection

Hi there, i was researching about how to make an ssl connection between the pmm client and server ?

by defualt , the document says using the below command we can get the client connected to the server , but i am not sure if i understand what is “–server-insecure-tls”

pmm-admin config --server-insecure-tls --server-url=https://admin:admin@X.X.X.X:443

Can anyone please elaborate on this ?
Thanks.

so , by default the connection between pmm client and server is ssl ? or is there something more to be configured so that the connection is an ssl?
