switch configuration. The CLI commands are detailed in the encryption administrator’s guide for
your key vault management system.

1. Initialize the switch. If the switch is not already in the initiated state, BNA performs the

cryptocfg

--

initnode command.

2. Create an encryption group on the switch. BNA creates a new group using the cryptocfg

--

create

-

encgroup command, and sets the key vault type using the cryptocfg

--

set

-

keyvault

command.
