Adding an ASA 310-FIPS to an Existing Cluster 67

Enter a new HSM-USER password for card 1: <define a new

HSM-USER password, or use the same HSM-USER password as

for card 0>

Re-enter to confirm:

The HSM-USER iKey has been updated.

Card 1 successfully initialized.

5Transfer the cluster wrap key from the CODE-SO and CODE-USER iKeys onto HSM card 0.

Step 5 and Step 6 are related to transferring the cluster wrap key onto the two HSM cards in the ASA 310-FIPS you are adding to the cluster. The wrap key is transferred onto each HSM card in two steps, where each half of the cluster wrap key stored on the two black CODE-SO and CODE-USER iKeys is loaded and combined on the HSM card in the new ASA 310-FIPS cluster member.

To successfully load and combine the cluster wrap key onto the HSM cards, you need the following:

The two black HSM Code iKeys, labeled "CODE-SO" and "CODE-USER" respectively, that you used when installing the first ASA 310-FIPS in the cluster.

If you have more than one cluster of ASA 310-FIPS units, make sure that you can identify to which cluster the pair of CODE iKeys are associated. The cluster wrap key that is split and stored on the two CODE iKeys is specific for each cluster of ASA 310-FIPS units.

( join setup, continued)

Verify that CODE-SO iKey (black) is inserted in card 0

(with flashing LED). <insert the same CODE-SO iKey that you used when installing the first ASA 310-FIPSin the

cluster>

Hit enter when done.

Verify that HSM-USER iKey (blue) is inserted in card 0 (with flashing LED).

Hit enter when done.

Verify that CODE-USER iKey (black) is inserted in card 0 (with flashing LED). <insert the same CODE-USER

iKey that you used when installing the very first ASA

310-FIPS in the cluster>

Hit enter when done.

Wrap key successfully combined to card 0.

6Transfer the cluster wrap key from the CODE-SO and CODE-USER iKeys onto HSM card 1.
