      It is not suprising. It is because in EAP 7.1 default https listener was introduced based on JKS keystore. Even if we get over keystore generation, we would hit https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBEAP-3789.
      According to developers it is feature, not a bug [1]. Probably nothing can be done here from developers perspective and I am raising thiss issue mainly for tracking purpose and as base for documentation JIRA.
