Configuration overview of connecting engines to the SMC

Configuring management connections for engines consists of these main steps.

  1. Configure the engine in the Management Client.
  2. Save an initial configuration for the engine on the Management Server. This triggers the creation of a one-time password that the engine uses to connect to the Management Server.
  3. Install the engine to make the engine contact the Management Server.
  4. Install a policy on the engine to transfer the full working configuration from the Management Server to the engine.
