4. Installing the software
This chapter describes how to install the Security World Software on the computer,
client, or RFS associated with your nShield HSM.
After you have installed the software, you must complete further Security World creation,
configuration and setup tasks before you can use your nShield environment to protect
and manage your keys. See the User Guide for more about creating a Security World and
the appropriate card sets, and further configuration or setup tasks.
If you are planning to use an nToken with a client, this should be
physically installed in the client before installing the Security World
software, see nToken Installation Guide.
