Configuring CIMOM server authentication
CIMOM server authentication is the authentication mechanism between the CIM client and the
CIMOM Server. You can configure the CIMOM server to allow the CIM client to query the CIMOM
server without providing credentials; however, the CIMOM server requires the Management
application credentials to connect to the Management application server to retrieve the required
data. Therefore, if you select no authentication, you must provide Management application
credentials to retrieve data from the Management application server.
To configure CIMOM server authentication, complete the following steps.
