• A secure SSL connection, use the global configuration no restrict
secure-xml command. For example, enter:
(config)# no restrict secure-xml
The CSS listens on port 443 for a secure connection request. The client
application can use SSL v2/3 or v3. However, the CSS performs all
negotiations using SSL v3. The CSS requires a Secure Management license
key to negotiate a secure connection using SSL strong encryption. Without
the key, the CSS uses SSL weak encryption.
To reset the default behavior to deny the transfer of XML configuration files
through a secure connection, use the global configuration restrict secure-xml
command. For example, enter:
(config)# restrict secure-xml
Parsing the XML Code
After you complete the XML file, parse the code to ensure that it is syntactically
correct. One easy way to parse XML code is to open the XML file directly from
Microsoft Internet Explorer. Syntax errors are flagged automatically when the file
is loaded. If an error occurs, review your XML code and correct all syntax errors.
Publishing the XML Code to the CSS
The completed XML file is remotely published (uploaded) to the HTTP server in
the CSS from the external network management workstation by using an HTTP
PUT method. The HTTP PUT method uses the IP address of the CSS as the
destination URL where you want to publish the XML file.
Note When you configure TACACS+ on a CSS, the CSS does not authorize scripts
through the TACACS+ server. Because the CSS transforms all XML commands
into scripts, the CSS also does not authorize XML commands through the
TACACS+ server.
