IBM Tivoli Monitoring, Version 6.3 Fix Pack 2


Define a Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server interface on Linux or UNIX

To define an additional Tivoli Enterprise Portal interface on Linux or UNIX, edit the install_dir/config/cq.ini file as described in this section.

  1. Locate the KFW_INTERFACES= variable and add the one-word name of the new interface, separating it from the preceding name by a space. For example:

      KFW_INTERFACES=cnps myinterface

  2. Following the entries for the default cnps interface, add the following variables as needed, specifying the appropriate values:

    KFW_INTERFACE_interface_name_HOST=

    If you are defining an interface for a specific NIC or different IP address on this computer, specify the TCP/IP host address.

    KFW_INTERFACE_interface_name_PORT=

    Type a port number for the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server. The default 15001 is for the server host address, so a second host IP address or a NATed address requires a different port number.

    KFW_INTERFACE_interface_name_PROXY_HOST=

    If you are using address translation (NAT), type the TCP/IP address used outside the firewall. This is the NATed address.

    KFW_INTERFACE_interface_name_PROXY_PORT=

    If the port outside the firewall will be translated to something different than what is specified for Port, set that value here.

    KFW_INTERFACE_interface_name_SSL=Y

    If you want clients to use Secure Sockets Layers (SSL) to communicate with the Tivoli Enterprise Portal Server, add this variable.
