Configuring options for the Trusted Network Connect (TNC) server

Learn the steps to configure the TNC server.

To configure the TNC server, the /etc/tnccs.conf file must have a value similar to the following:

component = SERVER

To configure a system as a server, enter the following command:

psconf mkserver tncport=<port> pmserver=<ip|hostname[,ip2|hostname2..]:port>
[recheck_interval=<time in mins>]

For example:

psconf mkserver tncport=10000 pmserver=2.2.2.2:20000 recheck_interval=20

Note: The tncport port and the pmserver port must be set to different values, and if the value of the recheck_interval parameter is not provided, a default value of 1440 minutes is used.

The default port value of 42830 is used for the tncport port, and the default value of 38240 is used for the pmserver port.
