• Trust By Name

Select Trust By Name. Click Next. The Trusted Server window appears. Enter the

names of the servers you want to trust.

Although the Trust By Name mode is a slightly stronger method of security than the

Trust All mode, it still leaves your system vulnerable to security attacks. The Trust By

Name mode sets up the HP System Management Homepage to only accept certain

requests from servers with the Systems Insight Manager names designated in the Trust

By Name field. The Trust By Name option is easy to configure and can prevent

non-malicious access. For example, you might want to use the Trust By Name option

if you have a secure network, but your network has two groups of administrators in two

separate divisions. The Trust By Name option would prevent one group from installing

software to the wrong system. This option does not verify anything other than the Systems

Insight Manager server name submitted.

NOTE: The server name cannot contain the following characters:

~ ! ` @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) + = " : ' < > ? , | ;

ii. Click Add to add the name of a server you want to trust. Click Next.

NOTE: If you click Next without adding any server names to the list, an error message

appears, indicating that if you do not specify any trusted server names, Systems Insight

Manager cannot access the Insight Management Agents on this system. Click OK to

proceed without trusting any systems, or click Cancel to close the window and add

server names to the list. In the SMH interface, if you do not enter an Systems Insight

Manager name (host name) the Apply button will not be enabled, however during SMH

installation the installation will continue after displaying the error message.

certificate is removed.
