Securing an External Database
TLS 1.0 is used when securing communications between the RMX and an external database.
The certificate is installed on the database server and the RMX is the client. When the
certificate is installed on the database server, all client requests and responses are
transferred via secure port 443.
It is important to verify that the external database application is operating in secure mode
before enabling secure external database communications on the RMX. The RMX checks the
validity of external database’s certificate before communicating. If there is a certificate error
an Active Alarm is raised with Error in external database certificate in the description field.
To enable secure RMX Communications with an External Database:
>>
Set the RMX to communicate with the database server via port 443 by setting the value
of the System Flag
EXTERNAL_DB_PORT
in system.cfg to 443.
For more information see " Modifying System Flags” on page 21-1 .
MS Active Directory Integration
It is possible to configure direct interaction between the RMX and Microsoft Active Directory
for Authentication and Authorization of Management Network users.
The following diagram shows a typical user authentication sequence between a User , RMX
