Recommended Steps for Configuring your TPAM
Every customer’s environment is different but to make your configuration of TPAM as easy as possible we have a recommended outline for how you should configure and load data into your TPAM so you will be able to utilize the product as quickly as possible.
1. Have the TPAM System Administrator complete the configuration procedures described in the TPAM Configuration and Administrator Manual for the parconfig and paradmin interfaces, including creating a SysAdmin CLI Account. Download and store the key outside of the appliance.
2. Create a CLI Account in the /par interface with TPAM Administrator privileges. Download and store the key outside of the appliance.
3. If you are going to utilize Active Directory or Generic Integration first set up System Templates and User Templates. See sections 15.9 and 20.6.
