Installing F-Secure Policy Manager Server
Below is an example of edited httpd.conf file section:
#FSMSA listen
Listen 8080 <- make sure that connections are not limited to
localhost only
#FSMSA port
Order Deny,Allow
Deny from all <- First deny all
Allow from 127.0.0.1 <- Then allow access to the server
from local machine
Allow from 10.128.129.2 <- Allow access from the server
machine
Allow from 10.128.129.209 <- Allow access from
Administrator's workstation
SetHandler fsmsa-handler
After this, only the person who has access to the machines with the
defined IP addresses can use F-Secure Policy Manager Console.
3. If there is a very strong need to use F-Secure Policy Manager over a
public network (such as the Internet), it is recommended to encrypt
the connection between F-Secure Policy Manager Server and
F-Secure Policy Manager Console with a VPN or SSH type product.
As an alternative, F-Secure Policy Manager Console and F-Secure Policy
Manager Server can be installed on the same machine, and access
limited to the localhost. Remote administrator access to the F-Secure
Policy Manager Console can be arranged by using a secure remote
desktop product.
