Configurations

This document discusses configurations in two ways:

combinations of capabilities and characteristics that are mostly pre-determined by the model you order from the factory

combinations of settings and options that you can modify to suit your situation and needs after receiving your HSM

The factory-built configurations, along with some notes about their interactions and exclusions are discussed at:

"Factory-Installed HSM Configurations"

In addition to factory-built configurations, you can also update to newer firmware versions, or purchase and apply certain enhancements after receiving your Luna HSM, in the form of Capability Upgrades, discussed at:

"Firmware Updates and Capability Upgrades"  

The remainder of this chapter introduces some after-purchase configurations that you can perform with your Luna HSM products, including some that are mandatory in order to make use of your Luna HSM, and some that are optional (and might, or might not, require additional equipment or software) that can enhance the utility and usability of your Luna HSMs. The various configurations are introduced in the following sections:

"High Availability (HA) Configurations"

"Backup and Restore Configurations"

"Host Trust Link (HTL) Configurations"
