3 Performing a Secure LSMS Installation

This chapter describes the process to ensure a secure installation of LSMS.

3.1 Pre-Installation Configuration

All pre-installation configuration is set by TPD. No additional user configuration regarding security is required.

3.2 Installing LSMS Securely

The TPD Initial Product Manufacture Software Installation Procedure (Release 6.7.2+) ensures a secure installation of the LSMS application. All non-essential and non-secure services are removed or excluded from the default installation.

Oracle recommends using the default installation, unless there are specific customer needs for additional services.

3.3 Post-Installation Configuration

There are no required post-installation configuration changes pertaining to Security.

Establishing various network connections from the LSMS to other customer network elements is performed by using the LSMS GUI as documented in Configuration Guide.

You can disable HTTP and use only HTTPS for the GUI, so that data is encrypted when exchanged between the web server and the browser. For more information, see Using Login Sessions.

To install specific SSL certificates, including for LSMS with customized parameters and from a trusted Certificate Authority (CA) to replace a self-signed certificate, see Chapter 4, "Implementing LSMS Security."
