library; or that no TLS certificates are installed or the TLS certificates
are invalid or expired. At the bottom of the page, a message tells
you whether TLS certificates are currently installed. If certificates are
installed, a table appears below the message containing
information about the installed certificates.
4 From the Select the Certificate Type to install drop-down list,
select SKM.
5 Select the Use the Quantum Certificate Bundle checkbox.
6 Click the Browse button next to the Quantum Communication
Certificate Bundle File field and locate the TLS certificate file.
7 Click Open.
8 Click Apply.
9 Verify that the TLS certificates are now installed in the library. At the
bottom of the page is a statement letting you know whether the
certificates are currently installed. In addition, the three rows of the
table at the bottom of the screen should be filled in with the correct
information.
Follow these instructions to install your own TLS certificates (for SKM),
or when installing TLS certificates for KMIP key managers. When
providing your own certificates, it is assumed you understand the
concepts of PKI and can access the tools or third-party resources needed
to generate or obtain certificates.
Note: If you are using SKM you must be running SKM 1.1 or higher
on your SKM servers in order to install your own TLS
certificates. If you install your own TLS certificates on the
library, you must also install your own certificates on the SKM
servers. Similarly, if you use the Quantum-provided TLS
certificates on the SKM servers, you must also use the
Quantum-provided TLS certificates on the library. See the Scalar
Key Manager User's Guide for information about installing TLS
certificates on the SKM servers.
Note: If you are using KMIP key managers your KMIP server
provider will provide TLS communication certificates.
