Using this dialog box, you can select a key vault for the encryption group that contains the
selected switch. Prior to selecting your Key Vault Type, the selection is shown as None. The
dialog box contains the following information:

Key Vault Type:

If an encryption group contains mixed firmware nodes, the Encryption Group Properties
Key Vault Type name is based on the firmware version of the group leader.

Options are:

NetApp Link Key Manager (LKM)

RSA Data Protection Manager (DPM)

HP Secure Key Manager (SKM)

hosting LKM is supported.

Before selecting KMIP as the key vault type, all nodes in an encryption group must be
running Fabric OS 7.1.0 or later.
