The following table describes the components of the Import Key section.
Table 38 Import Key section components
Component Description
Key Name
This is the name that the server uses to refer to the key. The key name must begin with
a letter, it must be between 1 and 64 characters (inclusive), and it can consist of
letters, numbers, underscores (_), periods (.), and hyphens (-).
Owner Username
When you import and export keys, metadata such as key ownership is not retained.
As such, any previous owner assigned to a key must be re-assigned once the key is
imported. You do not have to specify an owner for the key; if you leave that field
blank, the imported key is a global key and therefore accessible to all users. If you
want to assign an owner for the key, you can specify any valid user in the Owner
Username field. If you assign an owner, then that user is the only user who can access
the key (unless the key is given additional group permissions later).
Algorithm
The algorithm is any one of the following:
• AES
• DES-EDE
• DES
• RC4
• HmacSHA1
• RSA
NOTE:
Some of the algorithms listed above will not be available on FIPS-compliant
devices.
Deletable
A check mark in the box indicates that the key is deletable via an XML request by
the key owner (or any user for global keys). After a key is created, this value may
be changed.
Exportable
A check mark in the box indicates that the key is exportable via an XML request.
An exportable key can be exported by its owner and by members of a group with
“Export” permission for the key. A global key marked exportable can be exported by
any user. After a key is created, this value may be changed.
Key
To import a key to the server, you must enter the properly encoded bytes of the key in
the Key field.
