API
The nv unset commands remove the configuration you set with the equivalent nv set commands. This guide only describes an nv unset command if it differs from the nv set command.
nv set system api listening-address <listening-address-id>
Configures the NVUE REST API listening address; you can specify an IPv4 address or localhost. If you do not specify a listening address, NGINX listens on all addresses for the target port.
