Enrolling client devices with the SKM

The SKM is compatible with many client devices (for example, ETLA libraries). To establish correct

communication between the SKM and the client, you must create a client account, then configure the

client to obtain keys from the SKM. Please see the appropriate SKM installation poster for your client

device in order to complete these steps.

Verifying that installation and initial configuration is successful

It might be necessary to verify the installation and initial configuration. The method of verification

depends on the client to which the SKM is attached. Please see the appropriate SKM installation

document for your client device in order to complete these steps.
