This is not a bug, but seems to happen when some required fields are not
yet filled. While the 'remote' field can be obvious,it is much less
evident when the interface refuses to allow the configuration to be
saved, because the certificate provided requires a password and the
password field has been left blank.

The UI should be more explicit on why it does not allow the
configuration to be saved.

Marking the bug as invalid
