Setting up Policy Manager as proxy node The following steps describe Policy Manager Proxy node installation for both Windows and Linux.
- Install Policy Manager Server to act as a Proxy node, using the standard Policy Manager installer.
- Stop the Policy Manager service.
- Windows:
[net stop fsms]
- Linux:
[/etc/init.d/fspms stop]
- Fetch admin.pub from Master Policy Manager. You can either:
- Download it from Master Policy Manager using your browser (
https://<policy manager server IP/host name>:<https port number>
). For example: https://127.0.0.1:443, https://policymanagerhost:443. - Export it from the Policy Manager Console.
- Retrieve it from host if Policy Manager Proxy host is already running Server Security or Linux Security and is connected to the Master Policy Manager.
- Go to the Policy Manager Server (proxy node) data folder, and place or replace (if any) the existing admin.pub file with the downloaded admin.pub file retrieved from the Master Policy Manager.
- Windows:
C:\Program Files (x86)\F-Secure\Management Server 5\data\admin.pub
- Linux:
/var/opt/f-secure/fspms/data/admin.pub
- Edit additional_java_args in registry or conf file adding the following properties:
-
-DupstreamPmHost=<master PM address>
Example: -DupstreamPmHost=10.1.1.1 -
-DupstreamPmPort=<usually 443>
Example: -DupstreamPmPort=443 -
-DadminPubLocation="<path to admin.pub location from previous step, including the name of the file>"
Note: Path to admin.pub for Linux is written in single quote. Example:
- -DadminPubLocation="C:\Program Files (x86)\F-Secure\Management Server 5\data\admin.pub" (Windows)
- -DadminPubLocation='/var/opt/f-secure/fspms/data/admin.pub' (Linux)
-
-Djetty.startServerAsPrivileged=true
(Additional step for Policy Manager for Linux 12.30 and 12.31 only.)
Note: For Windows, edit String registry key "
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE(Wow6432Node)\Data Fellows\F-Secure\Management Server 5\additional_java_args
", and specify the above Java system properties using space as a delimiter. Property names and values are case sensitive. Note: For Linux, use config file
/etc/opt/f-secure/fspms/fspms.conf
instead of registry. Edit line with parameter additional_java_args and specify the above Java system properties in its value in quotes using space as a delimiter. Property names and values are case sensitive. - Use fspmp-enroll-tls-certificate script to generate proxy node certificate. Run the script and authenticate yourself as root administrator of the Master Policy Manager:
- Windows: Script location is
<F-Secure installation folder>/Management Server 5/bin/fspmp-enroll-tls-certificate.bat
- Linux: Script location is
/opt/f-secure/fspms/bin/fspmp-enroll-tls-certificate
- Start Policy Manager service.
- Windows:
[net start fsms]
- Linux:
[/etc/init.d/fspms start]
You can now configure endpoints to use proxy by specifying proxy node in priority order in Policy Manager Proxy table.
Note: Policy Manager Proxy table editor does not allow to modify HTTPs port, this it is always set to 443.
