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 SafeNet 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 SafeNet HSM products, including some that are mandatory in order to make use of your SafeNet 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 SafeNet HSMs. The various configurations are introduced in the following sections:
