How to Re–Register an Administrative UI Configured for External Authentication

Existing SiteMinder algorithms continue to encrypt the shared secret that the Administrative UI and the Policy Server use to establish an encrypted connection. Re–registering the Administrative UI creates a new shared secret that is encrypted using FIPS–compliant algorithms.

Complete the following procedures to re–register an Administrative UI configured for external authentication:

1. Delete the existing connection between the Administrative UI and the Policy Server.
2. Run the Administrative UI registration tool.
3. Gather registration information.
4. Configure the Administrative UI and Policy Server connection.
5. Delete the previous trusted host.
