SA [ -telnet ] [ -web ] [ -ssh ] [ -nc ] SA -? See also: DI, LC SO: Security option help Command access level: MP configuration access The SO command enables you to modify the security options of iLO 3. For user configuration, see the UC command. For SSH enable/disable, see the SA command. The security options menu is as follows: O - Security Options • Login timeouts • Allowed password faults • SSL certificate generation • Generate SSH key pairs • Exit security override mode L - SSL Certificate This option is an SSL certificate that is a self generated certificate and is also generated automatically the first time the iLO 3 is booted or if the NVRAM in which it is stored gets corrupted. You might want to regenerate this certificate with your own parameters or regenerate it when it is close to expiring. The initial certificate has a 10-year expiration date from the build date of the MP binary image. A regenerated certificate is only valid for 2 years from the system date. The SSL certificate is used to connect the web GUI to the iLO. H - SSH Pairs This option would only be used if the SSH keys need to be changed by choice or the keys which are stored in NVRAM get corrupted. The first time the iLO 3 is booted, these keys are generated automatically. These key pairs are used for SSH connections to the iLO. The following are SO command parameters: • Login timeout: 0 to 5 minutes. This is the maximum time allowed to enter login name and password after the connection is established. The connection is interrupted when the timeout value is reached. The local console restarts the login; for all other terminal types, the connection is closed. A timeout value of 0 means there is no timeout set for the login. The login timeout and the timeout value is effective on all ports including the local port. However, the local port cannot be disconnected like other ports on login timeout. For example, if a local port user sits at the hpilo-> Login: prompt, no action occurs even when a timeout occurs. However, if a local port user enters a login name, sits at the hpilo-> Password: prompt, and a timeout occurs, then this login is cancelled and the hpilo-> Login: prompt reappears. • Number of password faults allowed: 1 to 10. This parameter defines the number of times a user can attempt to log in to a console before being rejected and having its connection closed. • SSL certificate: Enables the generation of SSL certificates. NOTE: If you specify the certificate using the command line, then you must specify every parameter. • SSH keys generation: Enables SSH keys authorization.

SO
: Security option help
Command access level: MP configuration access
The
SO
command enables you to modify the security options of iLO 3.
For user configuration, see the
UC
command. For SSH enable/disable, see the
SA
command.
The security options menu is as follows:
O – Security Options
Login timeouts
Allowed password faults
SSL certificate generation
Generate SSH key pairs
Exit security override mode
L – SSL Certificate
This option is an SSL certificate that is a self generated certificate
and is also generated automatically the first time the iLO 3 is
booted or if the NVRAM in which it is stored gets corrupted. You
might want to regenerate this certificate with your own parameters
or regenerate it when it is close to expiring. The initial certificate
has a 10-year expiration date from the build date of the MP binary
image. A regenerated certificate is only valid for 2 years from the
system date. The SSL certificate is used to connect the web GUI
to the iLO.
H – SSH Pairs
This option would only be used if the SSH keys need to be
changed by choice or the keys which are stored in NVRAM get
corrupted. The first time the iLO 3 is booted, these keys are
generated automatically. These key pairs are used for SSH
connections to the iLO.
The following are
SO
command parameters:
Login timeout: 0 to 5 minutes. This is the maximum time allowed to enter login name and
password after the connection is established. The connection is interrupted when the timeout
value is reached. The local console restarts the login; for all other terminal types, the connection
is closed. A timeout value of 0 means there is no timeout set for the login.
The login timeout and the timeout value is effective on all ports including the local port.
However, the local port cannot be disconnected like other ports on login timeout. For example,
if a local port user sits at the
hpilo-> Login:
prompt, no action occurs even when a timeout
occurs. However, if a local port user enters a login name, sits at the
hpilo-> Password:
prompt, and a timeout occurs, then this login is cancelled and the
hpilo-> Login:
prompt
reappears.
Number of password faults allowed: 1 to 10. This parameter defines the number of times a
user can attempt to log in to a console before being rejected and having its connection closed.
SSL certificate: Enables the generation of SSL certificates.
NOTE:
If you specify the certificate using the command line, then you must specify every
parameter.
SSH keys generation: Enables SSH keys authorization.
