SIOM Dependencies
© Copyright Lenovo 2018
The following points are relevant to SIOM:
The CMM has a Certificate Authority (CA) capable of signing the certificates
involved for authenticating the IOM in the SSL and TLS processes and protocols.
The correctness of the configuration depends upon the settings on the CMM.
This is especially important for NTP and LDAP, which ensure switch
operability. For example, if the LDAP client is configured incorrectly, the switch
cannot be managed.
The Enhanced Configuration and Management (EHCM) module configures the
NTP client. Therefore, the NTP client is dependent upon the ECHM module
being enabled and functional.
Some protocols cannot be changed from enabled to disabled without restarting
the switch. The IOM may reboot when switching between the SIOM and LIOM.
