#1 I created a CA in syslog server and then created a self-signed certificate for my server named "cs1.pem" and imported it into the "Trusted Root Certification Authorities" folder of CS server and imported CA cert into the system-wide trust store (certutil -d /etc/pki/nssdb -A -t "C,," -n <nickname> -i <path to CA file>)
#2 I successfully enabled secure messaging through the admin center with this self-signed cert.
#3 Issue:

Tried:
To investigate the issue, I captured some packages using tcpdump, which showed that the problem was caused by an "Unknown CA" error, though CA has been imported to trust store of syslog server and CS server.
I also noticed that the syslog server was using TLSv1.3 instead of TLSv1.2.
