<div><p>You must create a device description so that i5/OS™ SSL can
|
|
direct RSA cryptographic operations to the 2058 Cryptographic Accelerator.
|
|
You can create a device description by using the Create Device Description
|
|
(Crypto) (CRTDEVCRP). </p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p></p>
|
|
<p>To create
|
|
a device description using the CL command, follow these steps:</p>
|
|
</div>
|
|
<ol><li><span>Type <kbd class="userinput">CRTDEVCRP</kbd> at the command line.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Specify a name for the device as prompted.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Accept the default name of the PKA key store: <kbd class="userinput">*NONE</kbd>.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Accept the name default of the DES key store: <kbd class="userinput">*NONE</kbd>.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Specify an APPTYPE of <kbd class="userinput">*NONE</kbd>.</span></li>
|
|
<li><strong>Optional: </strong><span>Specify a description as prompted.</span></li>
|
|
<li><span>Use either the<span class="cmdname"> Vary Configuration (VRYCFG)</span> or
|
|
the <span class="cmdname">Work with Configuration Status (WRKCFGSTS)</span> CL commands
|
|
to vary on the device once you have created the device description.</span></li>

</ol>

<div class="section"> <div class="p">For digital certificates that are generated by software, and stored
|
|
in software, i5/OS SSL
|
|
automatically starts using the 2058 Cryptographic Accelerator once the device
|
|
is varied-on. The private key processing associated with SSL and TLS session
|
|
establishment is off-loaded to the 2058 Cryptographic Accelerator. When the
|
|
device is varied-off, i5/OS SSL switches back to software based encryption
|
|
for establishing SSL and TLS sessions, thereby placing the private key processing
|
|
load back on the server. <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> This is only true for certificates and private
|
|
keys that were not created by the Cryptographic Coprocessor. If a certificate
|
|
was generated using the Cryptographic Coprocessor, the Cryptographic Coprocessor
|
|
has to be used for those SSL or TLS sessions which use that particular certificate.</div>
