Planning considerations for Public Key Infrastructure on VNX for file
The VNX for file Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) provides the software management and database systems to support the use of digital certificates for Data Mover LDAP and HTTP connections on which SSL is enabled. Certificates, whose authenticity is verified by a Certificate Authority (CA), are used by SSL to identify one or both ends of a connection, providing stronger security between clients and servers.
NOTE:The VNX for file PKI framework supports the
X.509 certificate standard. Certificates are encoded using Distinguished
Encoding Rules (DER) and may be further encoded in Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM)
format for ease of distribution through email systems.
