Configuring the transport protocol for the CIM server

The default transport protocol for the CIM server is HTTP. This uses the wbem-http port (TCP port
5988). HTTPS for CIM uses the wbem-https port (TCP port 5989).
To configure the CIM server to use only the HTTPS protocol, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# cimserver enableHttps
switch(config)# no cimserver enableHttp

Enabling the CIM Server

The CIM server is disabled in all switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family by default. To use the CIM
server, you must explicitly enable it on the required switches in the fabric.
To enable the CIM server, follow these steps:
Command
Step 1
switch# config t
Step 2
switch(config)# feature cimserver
switch(config)# no feature cimserver

Displaying CIM Information

To display CIM information, use the show cimserver command (see
Example
