Creating an SCEF-FE Profile

Note: You must establish the Policy Management network topology before you can create policy server profiles.
To create an SCEF-FE profile:
  1. From the SCEF-FE section of the navigation pane, select Configuration.

    The content tree displays a list of SCEF-FE groups; the initial group is ALL.

  2. From the content tree, select the ALL group.

    The SCEF-FE Server Administration page opens in the work area.

  3. Click Create SCEF-FE Server.

    The New SCEF-FE Server page opens.

  4. (Required) Select the Associated Cluster with which to associate this SCEF-FE server.

    See Configuring the SCEF Topology for details on adding clusters to the topology.

  5. (Required) Enter the Name for this server.

    The default is the associated cluster name. A name is subject to the following rules:
    • The name can only contain the characters A through Z, a through z, 0 through 9, period (.), hyphen (-), and underline (_).
    • The name is case insensitive (uppercase and lowercase are treated as the same).
    • The maximum length is 255 characters.

  6. (Optional) Enter the Description / Location.

    Information that defines the function or location of this SCEF server.

  7. (Optional) Select to enable Secure Connection.

    This setting determines whether or not to use the HTTPS protocol for secure communication between Policy Management devices. If selected, devices communicate over port 8443. See the Platform Configuration User’s Guide for information on creating and exchanging security certificates within and between Policy Management clusters to support secure communication.

  8. Click Save.
The SCEF-FE profile appears in the list of SCEF-FE servers. You have defined the SCEF-FE profile.
Proceed with configuring the SCEF-FE server. See Configuring an SCEF-FE Profile.
