To configure your HSM, you can use Excrypt Manager, a Windows application that provides a GUI-based method, or FXCLI, a command-line-based method that you can install on all platforms. Keep the following considerations in mind:
  • If you configure the Vectera Plus from a Linux computer, you can skip this section. If you configure it from a Windows computer, perform the FXCLI installation steps in the next section because FXCLI is the only method that you can use to configure TLS certificates in a later section.
  • Install Excrypt Manager on the workstation on which you plan to configure the HSM.
  • If you plan to use a Virtual HSM for the integration, you must perform all configurations by using either FXCLI, the Excrypt Touch, or the Guardian Series 3.
  • The Excrypt Manager version must be from the 4.4.x branch or later to be compatible with the HSM firmware, which must be 7.2.x.x or later.
