SSL problem when accessing remote server in Deploy Test Agent Task on TFS 2017

Question
-
I have a build on TFS 2017 for my codedui project. TFS builds the project but after in Deply Task I am getting error in Deply Test Agent Task
TFS installed on local pc where also agent installed. In the task in Machines sections I wrote IP where agent is installed, --> 10.11.7.78:5985
I select https and unselect the checkbox Test certificate (selecting also does not work)
-I have a question, test options are based on machine instead of agent, Is this IP should be the IP for agent installed ?
Error occured on '10.1.7.78:5985'. Details : 'Connecting to remote server 10.1.7.78 failed with the following error message : The server certificate on the destination computer (10.1.7.78:5985) has the following errors:
Encountered an internal error in the SSL library. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.'. For troubleshooting, refer https://aka.ms/remotevstest.
System.Exception: Error occured on '10.1.7.78:5985'. Details : 'Connecting to remote server 10.1.7.78 failed with the following error message : The server certificate on the destination computer (10.1.7.78:5985) has the following errors:
Encountered an internal error in the SSL library. For more information, see the about_Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.'. For troubleshooting, refer https://aka.ms/remotevstest.Meanwhile, On github for Azure Devops Pipeline, I saw a comment which confused me (but thi is for TF 2018)
--> Since "Deploy test agent" task got deprecated in TFS 2018, there is no way to run the test agent in interactive mode automatically (like it did in TFS 2015 using Deploy Test agent task) to execute the CodedUI tests.
--> Since "Deploy test agent" task is deprecated now, you need to use "Visual studio test" task.
