The following rules apply for TEKA:
• The key vault user name and user group name are generated on the switch. To view those
values, select Switch > Properties, then click Key Vault User Name.
• The generated user name and user group name are registered with TEKA and are used for
administering TEKA clients.
• The password is established when the TEKA client is created.
Signing the encryption node KAC CSR on the TEKA appliance
The KAC certificate signing request (KAC CSR) generated when the encryption node is initialized
must be exported for each encryption node and signed by the local CA on TEKA. The signed
certificate must then be imported back into the encryption node.
1. From the Encryption Center, select Switch > Export Certificate.
The Export Switch Certificate dialog box displays.
2. Select Public Key Certificate Request (CSR), then click OK.
A dialog box displays that allows you to save the CSR to your SAN Management Program
client PC.
Alternatively, you can select Switch > Properties, then click the Export button beside the Public
Key Certificate Request, or you can copy the CSR for pasting in the From Text box on the Thales
management program Sign Certificate Request page.
3. Log in to the Thales management program.
4. In the user table under the Certificate column, click the pen icon for the newly created user.
The Sign Certificate Request page displays.

from Switch > Properties, paste the CSR file contents to the From Text box, then click Sign.
6. Under the Certificate column, click the export icon (globe with an arrow).
A file save dialog displays.
7. Click Save and enter the destination location for this signed certificate. Save the certificate
with a Privacy Enhanced Mail (.pem) extension.

name, password, and group.
