Unknown setting [searchguard.enterprise_modules_enabled]

If you think it is a bug report or you have a technical issue, please answer the following questions. For general questions, you can delete these questions.

Elasticsearch version: 7.10.2

Server OS version: CentOS 7

Kibana version (if relevant): N/A

Browser version (if relevant): N/A

Browser OS version (if relevant): N/A

Describe the issue: The plugin does not recognize the option searchguard.enterprise_modules_enabled. The plugin is definitely loaded because it is recognizing other TLS-related options

Steps to reproduce:

  1. sudo /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch-plugin install --verbose --batch https://maven.search-guard.com/search-guard-suite-release/com/floragunn/search-guard-suite-plugin/7.10.2-52.4.0/search-guard-suite-plugin-7.10.2-52.4.0.zip
  2. Add searchguard.enterprise_modules_enabled: false to the end of elasticsearch.yml
  3. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: unknown setting [searchguard.enterprise_modules_enabled] please check that any required plugins are installed, or check the breaking changes documentation for removed settings

Expected behavior: Search Guard License Info: No license needed because enterprise modules are not enabled

Provide configuration:
elasticsearch/config/elasticsearch.yml

# ======================== Elasticsearch Configuration =========================
#
# NOTE: Elasticsearch comes with reasonable defaults for most settings.
#       Before you set out to tweak and tune the configuration, make sure you
#       understand what are you trying to accomplish and the consequences.
#
# The primary way of configuring a node is via this file. This template lists
# the most important settings you may want to configure for a production cluster.
#
# Please consult the documentation for further information on configuration options:
# https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/index.html
#
# ---------------------------------- Cluster -----------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for your cluster:
#
cluster.name: atlr-moloch
#
# ------------------------------------ Node ------------------------------------
#
# Use a descriptive name for the node:
#
#node.name: node-1
#
# Add custom attributes to the node:
#
#node.attr.rack: r1
#
# ----------------------------------- Paths ------------------------------------
#
# Path to directory where to store the data (separate multiple locations by comma):
#
path.data: /home/elasticsearch/data
#
# Path to log files:
#
path.logs: /home/elasticsearch/logs
#
# ----------------------------------- Memory -----------------------------------
#
# Lock the memory on startup:
#
#bootstrap.memory_lock: true
#
# Make sure that the heap size is set to about half the memory available
# on the system and that the owner of the process is allowed to use this
# limit.
#
# Elasticsearch performs poorly when the system is swapping the memory.
#
# ---------------------------------- Network -----------------------------------
#
# Set the bind address to a specific IP (IPv4 or IPv6):
#
# network.host: _site_
network.bind_host: _site_
network.publish_host: atlr-mlch-elastic-025.domainredacted.com
#
# Set a custom port for HTTP:
#
#http.port: 9200
#
# For more information, consult the network module documentation.
#
# --------------------------------- Discovery ----------------------------------
#
# Pass an initial list of hosts to perform discovery when new node is started:
# The default list of hosts is ["127.0.0.1", "[::1]"]
#
#discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts: ["host1", "host2"]
discovery.zen.ping.unicast.hosts:
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-001.domainredacted.com
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-002.domainredacted.com
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-003.domainredacted.com
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-004.domainredacted.com
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-005.domainredacted.com
  - atlr-mlch-elastic-006.domainredacted.com
#
# Prevent the "split brain" by configuring the majority of nodes (total number of master-eligible nodes / 2 + 1):
#
discovery.zen.minimum_master_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the zen discovery module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Gateway -----------------------------------
#
# Block initial recovery after a full cluster restart until N nodes are started:
#
#gateway.recover_after_nodes: 3
#
# For more information, consult the gateway module documentation.
#
# ---------------------------------- Various -----------------------------------
#
# Require explicit names when deleting indices:
#
#action.destructive_requires_name: true

Just tested your config. It looks like searchguard.ssl_only: true is causing it.
When is set to false, ES starts successfully with the SG plug-in.

{"type": "server", "timestamp": "2021-10-18T21:42:47,670Z", "level": "INFO", "component": "c.f.s.c.ConfigurationRepository", "cluster.name": "Cluster1", "node.name": "sgssl-0.example.com", "message": "Search Guard License Info: No license needed because enterprise modules are not enabled", "cluster.uuid": "KZBA8c9DTVmh59q3B_vBPw", "node.id": "AC5RpECGQ36snsz4FSgQUQ"  }

Thank you Pablo! To clarify then, does searchguard.ssl_only imply that all Enterprise features are disabled? Is this setting sufficient to ensure license compliance with the community edition if we only want to use the SSL functionality?
