SSL-encrypted communication with the hash function larger than SHA-2 (SHA-256 or larger).
The Year 2010 Encryption Problem
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) compiles the types of encryption that
U.S. government agencies should use. The NIST recommends transitioning to encryption types with
larger key size and advanced security after 2010. Although responding to this issue is not
mandatory, it is recommended. A large number of devices and systems utilizing encryption will
be affected by this new encryption standard.
Single Sign-on from HP Systems Insight Manager
Remote Web Console supports single sign-on from HP Systems Insight Manager. A user who logs

you need to import a Remote Web Console tool definition file into HP Systems Insight Manager,
and register certificates for HP Systems Insight Manager to the SVP. For details on how to import
