Authentication Management
Since the HP Management Server can discover and manage all HP
Device Manager gateways and agents on the network, a security
problem may occur due to the improper usage of the Management
Server. To overcome this, HP Device Manager provides an authenti-
cation capability for the gateways and the agents to recognize a
secure Management Server.
There are two tools for providing authentication:
Key Management
and
Gateway Access Control
. These are accessed by selecting
Tools
>
Authentication Management
in the Console’s menu bar.
Key Management
An Authentication Key is a plain text password which is input on the
Management Console. The key will be passed to the devices during
the key update process. The devices will check the key passed by
Management Server when executing tasks.
To update the current Authentication Key:
1
Select
Tools
>
Authentication Management
>
Key Management
in the Console’s menu bar to display the
Authentication
dialog.
2
Enter your user
Password
then click
OK
. The
Key Management
window will be displayed.
