Configuring DTI credentials

Prev Next

Virtual appliances have appliance-specific DTI credentials that are generated from the appliance's activation code and that cannot be changed. Physical appliances have factory-configured DTI credentials that should not be changed.

You should never change DTI credentials, except when you need to configure a custom DTI source in a Network Address Translation (NAT) deployment in which both of the following are true:

  • The Central Management System appliance is behind a NAT gateway.

  • The managed appliance uses the non-default dual-port address type for communication with the Central Management System appliance.

You can also change DTI credentials when you need to configure a custom DTI source in a cache proxy deployment.

Prerequisites
  • Admin access

Configuring DTI credentials using the CLI

Use the commands in this topic to configure DTI credentials (username and password).

To configure DTI credentials:
  1. Go to CLI configuration mode:

    hostname > enable
    hostname # configure terminal
  2. Specify the user and password:

    hostname (config) # fenet dti source type <name> username <user> password <password>

    The variables have the following values:

    • <name>—The name of the custom DTI source.

    • <user> and <password>—The new credentials.

  3. Verify your changes:

    hostname (config) # show fenet dti configuration
  4. Save your changes.

    hostname (config) # write memory
