2. In the Group Name field, enter the name of an operating system group that you want to

6. Select one of the following options:
• Anonymous Access Anonymous Access is disabled by default. Enabling Anonymous
Access enables a user to access the HP System Management Homepage without logging
in. Select this option to allow anonymous access.
Caution: HP does not recommend the use of anonymous access.
• Local Access Local Access is disabled by default. Enabling Local Access enables a
user to locally gain access to the HP System Management Homepage without being
challenged for authentication, which means that any user with access to the local console
is granted full access if Administrator is selected. If Anonymous is selected, any local
user has access limited to unsecured pages without being challenged for a user name
and password.
Caution: HP does not recommend the use of local access unless your management
server software enables it.

discard the changes and close the wizard.
8. Select one of the following Trust Mode security options:
• Trust by Certificate Sets the HP System Management Homepage to accept configuration
changes only from HP SIM servers with trusted certificates. This mode requires the
submitted server to provide authentication by means of certificates. This mode is the
strongest method of security because it requires certificate data and verifies the digital
signature before allowing access. If you do not want to enable any remote configuration
changes, leave Trust by Certificate selected, and leave the list of trusted systems empty
by avoiding importing any certificates.
NOTE: HP strongly recommends using this option because it is more secure.
To trust by certificate:
1. Select Trust by Certificate, and click Next.
2. In the Certificate Name field, click Browse to select the certificate file. After the
certificate file is selected, the certificate data appears on the screen.
3. Click Add. The certificate appears under Certificate Files. You can click Save to
save your changes up to this point or click Cancel to discard the changes and close
the wizard.
4. Click Next. The IP Binding page appears.
• Trust by Name Sets the HP System Management Homepage to accept certain
configuration changes only from servers with the HP SIM certificate names designated
in the Trust By Name field. The Trust By Name option is easy to configure. For example,
you might use the Trust By Name option if you have a secure network with two separate
groups of administrators in two separate divisions. It prevents one group from installing
