Server Certificate Name

When a server certificate
name is entered, it checks if
the server name:

Trust by Certificate

Sets HP SMH to accept
configuration changes only
from HP SIM servers with
trusted

certificates

. This mode

requires the submitted server
to provide authentication by
means of certificates. This
mode is the strongest method
of security because it requires
certificate data and verifies the
digital signature before
allowing access. If you do not
want to enable remote
configuration changes, leave
Trust by Certificate selected,
and leave the list of trusted
systems empty by not
importing certificates.

This is the default behavior on
Linux Itanium.

HP strongly recommends using
this option because it is more
secure.

Server Certificate Name Enable
All

Checks all listings in the
register's checkboxes.

2

Trust by Name

Sets HP SMH to accept
configuration changes only
from servers with HP SIM
names designated in the Trust
By Name field. For example,
you might use this option if
you have a secure network
with two groups of
administrators in two divisions.
It prevents one group from
installing software to the
wrong system. This option
verifies only the HP SIM server
that you designate.

HP strongly recommends using
the Trust by Certificate option
because the other options are
less secure.

3

Trust all

Sets HP SMH to accept
specific configuration changes
from systems. For example,
you could use the Trust All
option if you have a secure
network, and everyone in the
network is trusted.

HP strongly recommends using
the Trust by Certificate option
because the other options are
less secure.
