Adding a New PEP Using ETPM
Normally, you should add PEPs using the ETEMS Appliance Manager; however, it is possible to add
PEPs from ETPM. Keep in mind that you will have to use ETEMS to push the configurations to the
PEPs.
To add a new PEP using ETPM:
1 From the EncrypTight Components view on ETPM, click the PEPs tab.
The PEP tab displays a list of all configured PEPs.
2 Right-click anywhere in the PEP view and then click Add new Element.
3 Enter the PEP’s properties on the appliance editor as required by your network configuration. Refer to
Table 39.
4Click Save when complete.
Adding Large Numbers of PEPs
When you have a large number of PEPs to add, entering each configuration individually is time-
consuming. To minimize the time needed to add and configure new PEPs, create customized default
configurations for your PEPs and use the Import Configurations feature in ETEMS to import basic
appliance information for a large number of appliances from a .csv file.
In the customized default configurations, make sure to specify the settings critical to EncrypTight, as
outlined in Table 39.
