Security Management (FIPS Mode)

Enabling SecurID

4. Log into the Broadmore using a conventional terminal emulator such as Telnet

(see “Logging In” on page

10-5

).

5. Start up the CAMMI interface by entering the following command at the

Broadmore prompt:
cammi

6. Verify that the Broadmore is not in FIPS mode by observing that the CAMMI

Help / About Security screen shows that FIPS mode is inactive.

Enabling SecurID

NOTE:

SecurID is only available when FIPS mode is turned on (see

“Enabling FIPS Mode” on page

11-18

). Only the online CPU can be accessed

when SecurID is enabled.

Only a Superuser (Crypto Officer) can change the security modes. The Broadmore is
shipped from the factory with SecurID turned off. The security mode can only be
changed after successfully logging into the Broadmore while in its current security
mode.

SecurID requires that the Broadmore CPUs be set up for use with a SecurID server.
Each CPU must be set up one at a time. In a redundant system, one CPU must be
temporarily removed while the other is being set up.

SecurID requires the following:

RSA SecurID server version 5.0 or higher

SSH terminal emulator, such as SecureCRT

SFTP software, such as SecureFX

Ethernet connection to both CPUs

1. If the Broadmore has two CPUs, remove the CPU that is not on line.
