Select Trust By Name.1.
2. Click Next. The Trusted Server dialog box appears.
Note: Although the Trust By Name mode is a slightly better security method than the Trust
All mode, your system is still vulnerable to security attacks. The Trust By Name mode sets
up HP SMH to accept only certain requests from servers with the HP SIM certificate names
designated in the Trust By Name field. The Trust By Name option is easy to configure and
can prevent unauthorized 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 on the wrong system. This option does not verify anything other than the HP SIM
certificate name submitted.
3. Enter the names of the certificate of HP Systems Insight Manager servers you want to trust.
Note: The HP SIM server certificate name cannot contain the following characters: ~, !, `, @,
#, $, %, ^, &, *, (, ), +, =, \, ", :, ', <, >, ?, ,, |, and ;.
4. Click Add to add the name of a certificate of HP SIM server you want to trust.
Note: You can enter a maximum of five HP SIM server names.
5. Click Next. The IP Binding dialog box appears.
Note: If you click Next without adding any HP SIM server certificate names to the list, an error
message appears indicating that if you do not specify any trusted server names, HP SIM cannot
access the HP Web-based Agents on this system. Click OK to proceed without trusting any
systems, or click Cancel to close the dialog box and add HP SIM server certificate names to
the list.
Note: To delete a HP SIM server certificate name, select the certificate name and click Delete.
The selected certificate name is removed.
