RX-Boot Mode Credentials Dialog Box
Use the RX-Boot Mode Credentials dialog box to add RX-Boot mode credentials, which are used for
booting the router from a reduced command-set image (RX-Boot). Enter the RX-Boot Mode username
and password; in the Confirm field, enter the password again.
HTTPS Port The port to use for HTTPS connections. The default is port 443 (unless
a different default is configured in the Security Manager device
communication settings). To change the default, first deselect Use
Default. Change this setting only if the device is configured to accept
HTTPS connections on a different port.
Note If you configure the local HTTP policy to be a shared policy and
assign the HTTP policy to multiple devices, the HTTPS port
number setting in the shared policy overrides the port number
configured in the Device Credentials page for all devices to
which the policy is assigned.
IPS RDEP Mode The connection method to use for contacting IPS devices when making
RDEP or SDEE connections (for event monitoring).
Certificate Common Name The name assigned to the certificate. The common name can be the
name of a person, system, or other entity that was assigned to the
certificate. In the Confirm field, enter the common name again.
Additional Fields and Buttons
Authentication Certificate
Thumbprint
(Device properties only.)
The certificate thumbprint for the device that is available in the Security
Manager certificate data store. Click Retrieve From Device to obtain
the current certificate from the device and to replace the one stored in
Security Manager.
For IPS devices, there are additional options for managing the
certificate as described in Managing IPS Certificates, page43-10.
RX-Boot Mode button Opens the RX-Boot Mode Credentials Dialog Box, where you can enter
the credentials for booting the router from a reduced command-set
image (RX-Boot).
If these credentials are for a Cisco router that runs from flash memory
(where it boots only from the first file in flash), you must run an image
other than the one in flash to upgrade the flash image. The RX-Boot
credentials are for running this other image.
SNMP button Opens the SNMP Credentials Dialog Box, where you can specify the
SNMP community strings defined on the device.
Test Connectivity button
(Device properties and
manual device addition only.)
Tests whether Security Manager can connect to the device using the
credentials you entered and the configured transport method. For more
information about testing device connectivity, see Testin g Dev ice
Connectivity, page9-1.
