Oh it’s talking about SSH and not HTTPS.

You can customize the `sshd` config here: [https://github.com/roots/trellis/blob/1163c87b5a7512c212146b2edeb9aed895347a7a/roles/sshd/templates/sshd\_config.j2](https://github.com/roots/trellis/blob/1163c87b5a7512c212146b2edeb9aed895347a7a/roles/sshd/templates/sshd_config.j2)

There’s a `Protocol` setting which can be set to `2`. Although the [docs](http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=sshd&sektion=8&apropos=0&manpath=FreeBSD+10.3-RELEASE) say that `2` is the default.

If you figure this out then it would be nice to submit a PR to Trellis itself.
