3. Register the key vault. The Management application registers the key vault using the
cryptocfg
--
reg keyvault command.
4. Enable the encryption engines. The Management application initializes an encryption switch
using the cryptocfg
--
initEE [<slotnumber>] and cryptocfg
--
regEE [<slotnumber>]
commands.
5. Create a new master key. (Opaque key vaults only). The Management application checks for a
new master key. New master keys are generated from the Security tab located in the
Encryption Group Properties dialog box.
NOTE
A master key is not generated if the key vault type is LKM/SSKM. LKM/SSKM manages DEK
exchanges through a trusted link, and the LKM/SSKM appliance uses its own master key to
encrypt DEKs.
6. Save the switch’s public key certificate to a file. The Management application saves the KAC
certificate in the specified file.
7. Back up the master key to a file. (Opaque key vaults only). The Management application saves
the master key in the specified file.

dialog box. (Refer to Figure 266 on page 694.)
2. Select a switch to add from the Encryption Center Devices table, then select Switch >
Create/Add to Group from the menu task bar.
