Steps for connecting to an LKM/SSKM appliance
20
Establishing the trusted link
You must generate the trusted link establishment package (TEP) on all nodes to obtain a trusted
acceptance package (TAP) before you can establish a trusted link between each node and the
NetApp LKM/SSKM appliance.
1. Select Configure > Encryption from the menu task bar to display the Encryption Center
dialog box. (Refer to Figure 185 on page 526.)
2. Select an LKM/SSKM group from the Encryption Center Devices table, then select Group >
Link Keys from the menu task bar.
The switch name displays in the link status table under Switch, with a Link Key Status of
Link Key requested, waiting for LKM approval.
3. Select the switch, then click Establish.
This sends a Trust Establishment Package (TEP) message to the LKM/SSKM, which is needed
to establish the trusted link between the switch and the LKM/SSKM appliance.
4. Launch the NetApp DataFort Management Console (DMC) and click the View Unapproved
Trustees tab.
The switch is listed as openkey_trustee_<ip address>, where the IP address is the switch
IP address.
5. Select the switch, then click Approve and Create TAP.
The Approve TEP dialog box displays. The TEP must be approved before a TAP can be created.
6. Provide a label in the dialog box, then click Approve to approve the TEP.
A list of recovery cards and recovery officers is displayed. TEP approval is done by a quorum of
recovery officers, using assigned recovery cards. Each recovery officer must individually insert
one of the listed recovery cards into a card reader attached to the PC or workstation, then
enter the password for that card and click Start. The procedure is repeated until a quorum of
recovery officers has approved the TEP.
7. Save the TAP to a file (location does not matter).
8. Select the Link Keys tab from the Encryption Group Properties dialog box.
9. Select the switch in the link key status table, then click Accept to retrieve the TAP from the
LKM/SSKM appliance.
10. Repeat the above steps for each of the remaining member nodes.
LKM/SSKM key vault high availability deployment
LKM/SSKM appliances can be clustered to provide high availability capabilities. You can deploy
and register one LKM/SSKM with an encryption switch or blade and later deploy and register
another LKM/SSKM at any time if LKM/SSKMs are clustered or linked together. Refer to
LKM/SSKM documentation to link or cluster the LKM/SSKMs.
When LKM/SSKM appliances are clustered, both LKM/SSKMs in the cluster must be registered
and configured with the link keys before starting any crypto operations. If two LKM/SSKM key
vaults are configured, they must be clustered. If only a single LKM/SSKM key vault is configured, it
may be clustered for backup purposes, but it is not directly used by the switch.
