8.2.2 Tivoli Configuration Manager

We assume that you have an installation of the base Tivoli Configuration
Manager Version 4.2.3 up and running. In the following sections we cover the
installation and configuration of the Web Gateway feature and the setup of a
remediation server using these components.

In the next section we describe the detailed walkthrough to prepare the Tivoli
Configuration Manager machine for automated remediation.

Tivoli Configuration Manager Web Gateway setup

In our lab we were using Windows 2003 Enterprise Server Service Pack 1as an
operating system for Tivoli Configuration Manager server. If UNIX or Linux is
your platform of choice, the installation of the Tivoli Configuration Manager Web
Gateway will be very similar, except different path settings. The generic
description of the installation process can be found in Chapter 6 “Web Gateway
Installation” in IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager Version 4.2.3: Planning and
Installation Guide,
GC23-4702-03.

For all of the steps below we assume that you are logged onto the Configuration
Manager server with administrative privileges.

Important: We emphasize one general note about obtaining the latest fix
packs and upgrades: Always check the latest Deployment Guide for the IBM
Integrated Security Solution for Cisco Networks to verify the correct software
status.
