Configuring a Registration Manager
If you configure the Registration Manager for SSL-enabled communication with a
publishing directory, the Registration Manager also uses its SSL server certificate
for SSL client authentication to the publishing directory. This is the default
configuration. You can configure the Registration Manager to use an alternate
certificate for this purpose; see "Getting an SSL Client Certificate for a Subsystem"
on page 322.
If you configure the Registration Manager to function as a trusted manager to a Data
Recovery Manager, the Registration Manager also uses its SSL server certificate for
SSL client authentication to the Data Recovery Manager. For details on trusted
managers, see "Trusted Managers" on page 329. You can also configure the
Registration Manager to use an alternate certificate for this purpose; see "Getting
an SSL Client Certificate for a Subsystem" on page 322.

Changing Ports and IP Addresses

You set up the ports for each of the interfaces when you install the Registration
Manager. You can change the ports that any of the interfaces listen on, and you can
remove the HTTP (non-SSL) end-entity port if you will not use it. For information
on changing ports, see "Ports," on page 285. For information about the ports that
are setup with a Registration Manager, see "Registration Manager Interfaces," on
page 137.
You can also change the IP address for the CMS instance. You might do this if you
have more than one IP address set up on your machine and want separate
instances of CMS to use different IP addresses. You cannot do this during
installation; you must change this setting after installation. See "Changing an IP
Addresses," on page 289 for details.

Changing Subsystem Security Setting

You can configure the security of each subsystem by changing the SSL version used
by the subsystem and enabling or disabling ciphers, see "Configuring the Server's
Security Preferences," on page 320.

Changing Passwords or Storage Settings

Each subsystem stores passwords for its internal database, and for the tokens
containing its keys and certificates. See "System Passwords," on page 252 for
information on how these passwords are stored.
