The following applications are required:
• Windows WK2, XP, or W2K3 host
• Fabric Manager Server, Release, 3.2(3)
• OpenSSL
• JAVA JDK or JRE
The process of setting up the RKM to work with Cisco SME, involves the following tasks:
• Installing the RKM Application, page D-1
• Generating CA Certificates, page D-2
• Creating JKS Files Using the Java Keytool, page D-4
• Placing Certificates in RKM, page D-5
• Adding the Cisco SME User to RKM, page D-5
• Selecting RKM, page D-6
• Migrating From Cisco KMC to RKM, page D-8
After completing these tasks, you will be able to select RSA as the key manager for Cisco SME and then
create a cluster.
