Connection Manager
The Connection Manager contains a list of all connections to the resources that are external to the CipherTrust Manager server. Any resource that you intend to use with CipherTrust Manager and that resides outside of the CipherTrust Manager infrastructure has to be added using the Connection Manager.
Note
A CCKM administrator requires the Connection Admins permission to add, edit, or delete a connection for CCKM.
Accessing the Connection Manager
To access the Connection Manager, log in to CipherTrust Manager as administrator. Next, click Keys & Access Management on the main screen, and then select Connections from the sidebar on the left.
The Connections Management screen is displayed. It is divided into:
CONNECTIONS - allows you to configure the connections
INTERNAL CONNECTIONS - allows you to configure the servers required for a connection
Internal Connections
The tabular view lists all the currently configured servers. You can arrange the list in different orders, by clicking on the column headers to sort it by that column. The table has the following columns:
Hostname - hostname of the server
Description - description of the server
Created - date when the server was created
Service - type of service
Products - name of the product that uses the server
The last column contains an ellipsis icon (...). When clicked, it displays a menu that allows you to perform the following operations on the existing servers:
Delete - delete the server
Download Server Cert - download the server certificate
Click the Download Luna Client Cert button to download the certificate of the Luna client registered with Luna HSM.
Use the filters in the column headers to filter through multiple servers and display only those that you wish to display.
Use the Search box to search for a specific server.
Refer to Adding an Internal Connection (Server) to add the servers.
