9.2.10. Configuring the Remote File System (RFS)
The RFS contains the master copy of the Security World data for backup purposes. The
RFS can be a standalone machine, and can also dual role as a client. If the RFS duals as a
client, a common file structure serves both the RFS and the configuration files for the
client.
See the User Guide for more about the RFS and its contents.
The nShield Connect must be able to connect to TCP port 9004 of the RFS. If necessary,
modify the firewall configuration to allow this connection on either the RFS itself, or on a
router between the RFS and the nShield Connect, or both.
Obtain the following information about the nShield Connect before you set up an RFS for
the first time:
• The IP address
The following nShield Connect information can be obtained automatically (or
manually):
• The electronic serial number (ESN).
• The hash of the
clients. It is generated when the nShield Connect is first initialized from factory state.
If your network is secure and you know the IP address of the nShield Connect, you can
anonkneti
use the utility to obtain the ESN and hash of the
following command on the client computer. For guidance on network security, see the
nShield Security Manual.
