<div><p>Use this information to learn how to configure everything
|
||
|
|
you need to ensure that you can use DCM to manage your certificates and their
|
||
|
|
keys.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Digital Certificate Manager (DCM) provides a browser-based user interface
|
||
|
|
that you can use to manage digital certificates for your applications and
|
||
|
|
users. The user interface is divided into two main frames: a navigation frame
|
||
|
|
and a task frame. </p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You use the navigation frame to select the tasks to manage certificates
|
||
|
|
or the applications that use them. While some individual tasks appear directly
|
||
|
|
in the main navigation frame, most tasks in the navigation frame are organized
|
||
|
|
into categories. For example, <span class="uicontrol">Manage Certificates</span> is
|
||
|
|
a task category that contains a variety of individual guided tasks, such as
|
||
|
|
View certificate, Renew certificate, Import certificate, and so forth. If
|
||
|
|
an item in the navigation frame is a category that contains more than one
|
||
|
|
task, an arrow appears to the left of it. The arrow indicates that when you
|
||
|
|
select the category link, an expanded list of tasks displays so that you may
|
||
|
|
choose which task to perform.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>With the exception of the <span class="uicontrol">Fast Path</span> category, each
|
||
|
|
task in the navigation frame is a guided task that takes you through a series
|
||
|
|
of steps to complete the task quickly and easily. The Fast Path category provides
|
||
|
|
a cluster of certificate and application management functions which allows
|
||
|
|
experienced DCM users to quickly access a variety of related tasks from a
|
||
|
|
central set of pages.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Which tasks are available in the navigation frame vary based on the certificate
|
||
|
|
store in which you are working. Also, the category and number of tasks that
|
||
|
|
you see in the navigation frame vary depending on the authorizations that
|
||
|
|
your <span class="keyword">i5/OS™</span> user profile
|
||
|
|
has. All tasks for operating a CA, managing the certificates that applications
|
||
|
|
use, and other system level tasks are available only to <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> security
|
||
|
|
officers or administrators. The security officer or administrator must have
|
||
|
|
*SECADM and *ALLOBJ special authorities to view and use these tasks. Users
|
||
|
|
without these special authorities have access to user certificate functions
|
||
|
|
only.</p>

<p>If you want like more educational information about using digital certificates
|
||
|
|
in an Internet environment for enhancing your system and network security,
|
||
|
|
the VeriSign Web site is an excellent resource. The VeriSign Web site provides
|
||
|
|
an extensive library on digital certificates topics, as well as a number of
|
||
|
|
other Internet security subjects. You can access their library at the <a href="http://digitalid.verisign.com/server/help/hlpIntroID.htm" target="_blank">VeriSign Help Desk</a><img src="www.gif" alt="Link outside the Information Center" /> .</p>
