Security
Chapter 112
To disable the Export HTTPS port, use the cimconfig command to set the planned value of
the configuration property enableSSLExportClientVerification to false and restart the
CIM Server.
Local User Authentication
The CIM Server automatically authenticates local connections - that is connections
established using the connectLocal method in the CIMClient interface. This eliminates the
need for the user to specify a user name or password when issuing management commands on
the local system.
The Unix domain socket connection point is used for local connections, so this traffic is not
visible on the network interconnect.
