88 6: Performing Post-Migration Tasks
RSA Authentication Manager 6.1 to 8.1 Migration Guide
Change the instance
IP address
The initial IP address on the
instance is specified during Quick
Setup. If you have changed the
instance IP address, you must do
the following:
• Enter a new URL to access each
of the RSA Consoles. For more
information, see “Log On to the
Consoles” in the Deploying a
Primary Instance chapter of the
RSA Authentication Manager
8.1 Setup and Configuration
Guide.
• If you change the IP address of a
primary instance, you must
provide the new IP address to
each of the replica instances in
your deployment. The replica
instances require the new IP
address to contact the primary
instance.
See the Operations Console Help topic “Change
the Primary Instance IPv4 Network Settings.”
Generate and deploy
a new Authentication
Manager
configuration file
If you change the IP address on a
standalone primary instance or if
some authentication agents can
only communicate with an
instance that has a new IP address,
you must generate a new
Authentication Manager
configuration file (sdconf.rec) and
deploy it to all affected
authentication agents.
See Generate the Authentication Manager
Configuration File on page 91.
Configure RSA
RADIUS to replicate
changes.
RADIUS replication synchronizes
data on the RADIUS replica
servers with the data on the
RADIUS primary server. The
primary server detects when an
administrator changes RADIUS
data through the Security Console
and sends all RADIUS data that
can be replicated to the replica
servers. If no changes have been
made, the primary server does not
replicate any data.
You can configure automatic
replication, known as periodic
replication, or you can manually
replicate changes.
See the section “RADIUS Data Replication” in
the chapter Administering RSA RADIUS in the
RSA Authentication Manager 8.1 Administrator’s
Guide.
