gso-obfuscation-key

Use this stanza entry to set the key for obfuscating any passwords that are managed by the GSO RESTful web service.

gso-obfuscation-key = key

Description

To obfuscate the passwords that are managed by the GSO RESTful web service, set this stanza entry. The passwords are obfuscated by performing an AES-CBC encryption on the data using the supplied key. The appliance provides a web service to produce the obfuscated GSO password. For information about this web service, see REST API documentation. The passwords are obfuscated by AES-128-CBC encryption, which is AES cipher-block-chaining encryption with a 128 bit key. If the supplied key is less than 16 bytes in length, the key will be right-padded with one or more 0 characters to bring the key up to 16 bytes in length.

If this stanza entry is not set, the passwords that are managed by the GSO RESTful web service are not obfuscated.
