token pki

Note:  PKI mode is no longer supported and these commands have been deprecated.

Access the token pki commands. These commands allow you to operate token HSMs (with SafeNet Luna USB HSM connected to the SafeNet Luna Network HSM via USB) when used in PKI mode.

An external SafeNet Luna HSM can be USB-connected to a SafeNet Luna Network HSM appliance for:

local backup/restore operations (SafeNet Luna Backup HSM)

PKI bundle operations (SafeNet Luna USB HSM)

SafeNet Luna Network HSM does not pass PED operations and data through to an externally connected SafeNet Luna HSM from a Luna PED that is connected locally to the SafeNet Luna Network HSM.

If the external HSM is PED-authenticated, then the options for Luna PED connection are:

local PED connection, directly to the affected HSM, when needed, or

Remote PED connection, passed through the SafeNet Luna Network HSM 

Note:  Support for PKI Bundles with Remote PED begins at firmware version 6.10.1 in the external HSM.

Note:  Support for locally connected Backup HSM with Remote PED, begins at firmware version 6.10.1 in the external HSM.

Note:  Use of Remote PED with an external device is made possible when you set up with the commands
hsm ped vector init -serial <serial#_of_external_HSM> and
hsm ped connect -serial <serial#_of_external_HSM>
before using token pki or token backup commands.
