By default, gWLM’s communications are not secure, meaning:

  • The communications between the CMS and the managed nodes are not encrypted

  • The source and destination of gWLM’s communications are not authenticated

When securing communications, you must do so for every managed node in every SRD managed by a given CMS.

To secure gWLM’s communications, assuming OpenSSH is installed and configured for HP SIM on each of the managed nodes, select from the HP SIM menu bar:

Configure->Configure VSE Agents->Secure gWLM Communications…

For more information, see the online help topic “Securing gWLM Communications.”

Alternatively, you can secure communications manually by following the steps outlined in gwlmsslconfig(1M).

NOTE: HP strongly recommends always using gWLM with its communications secured.
