After deploying the Generic Futurex CNG service in CryptoHub, you need to deploy a client endpoint. Endpoints are devices authorized to access this service. In the Endpoints menu, you can view and filter details about existing endpoints and add new endpoints. Perform the following tasks to deploy a client endpoint and install the client library files:
  1. Deploy client endpoint.
  2. Install the FXCL CNG module.
  3. Test the connection between FXCL CNG and the CryptoHub.

​
Deploy client endpoint

Perform the following steps to deploy the client endpoint:
1
Go to the Endpoints menu inside the service you deployed.
2
In the Manage Endpoints menu, select [ Add New ].
3
In the Add Endpoint dialog:
  1. Enter a Name for the endpoint.
  2. Leave the CryptoHub Hostname value set to the default.
  3. Select the Platform on which to deploy FXCL CNG.
4
Select [ Add Endpoint ]. When prompted, download a zip file containing the FXCL CNG module and a pre-configured configuration file to connect to your CryptoHub instance.

​
Install the FXCL CNG module

Perform the following steps to install the FXCL CNG module on the machine where you installed the Microsoft application you are integrating:
1
Extract the zip file downloaded in your browser after deploying the service in CryptoHub.
2
Go to the extracted directory with the following files:
  • client.p12
  • CNGInstallUtil.exe
  • config.json
  • InstallCNG.bat
  • libfxcl-cng.dll
  • UninstallCNG.bat
3
Run the InstallCNG.bat file to install FXCL CNG. If the installation fails, create the directory path C:\Program Files\Futurex\fxcl\kmes\cng as an administrator and move all the files extracted from the zip into that directory.

​
Test the connection

Perform the following steps to test the connection between FXCL CNG and the CryptoHub:
1
Open either PowerShell or Command Prompt.
2
Run the following certutil command to test the connection between FXCL CNG and the CryptoHub.
Text
certutil -csptest -csp "Futurex FXCL KMES CNG" RSA
If the connection succeeds, the following message displays in the last line of the command output:
None
CertUtil: -csptest command completed successfully.
If the command fails, check the FXCL CNG log (C:\Program Files\Futurex\fxcl\kmes\cng\fxcl.log) for details about the error.
