More about using Client Certificate-Based Authentication
Before making use of CBA, you must do the following:
1. Enable Certificate Based Authentication (CBA) using the cimconfig command. By
default, CBA is disabled. Refer to the cimconfig(1M) and cimtrust(1M) man pages for
more information.
2. Use the cimtrust command to include client certificates from the trust store in the
cimserver and associate that certificate with a system user.
3. The HTTPS connections must be enabled in order for the client to have its certificate
authenticated by HP WBEM Services.
NOTE HP System Insight Manager (HP SIM) version 5.1 or later is able to use
Certificate-Based remote user authentication. See HP SIM documentation
for more information.
