Using Certificates with HP-UX IPSec

Using VeriSign Certificates

•Hostname of the proxy server

•Port number on which the proxy server receives internal requests

•User name for the proxy server, if the proxy server requires user name and password authentication

•Password for the proxy server, if the proxy server requires user name and password authentication

Step 2: Configuring Web Proxy Server Parameters

If you need to use a web proxy server to access the VeriSign Managed PKI Control Center, use the following procedure to configure web proxy server information for ipsec_mgr.

1.Start ipsec_mgr, the IPSec Manager configuration GUI. Enter the following command from the HP-UX prompt:

ipsec_mgr

Do not run ipsec_mgr as a background process. The ipsec_mgr prompts for the HP-UX IPSec password before starting the GUI.

If no password has been set, you must create one using the

ipsec_admin -newpasswdcommand. See Chapter 2, “Step 3: Setting the HP-UX IPSec Password” on page 55 for instructions.

Using a Remote Display Device

The ipsec_mgr configuration GUI requires a graphical display device. If you are using a remote graphical display device, be sure that you:

•Set the DISPLAY environment variable to your display device. For example, if you are using the KORN shell, the command is:

export DISPLAY=display_device:0.0

• Execute the ipsec_mgr program from the system console.

2.Click on the Options menu. Select System, then Proxy Information.
