IMC and IMV modules
The Trusted Network Connect (TNC) server or client internally use the integrity measurement collector (IMC) and integrity measurement verifier (IMV) modules for server verification.
This framework allows loading of multiple IMC and IMV modules into the server and clients. The
module that performs the operating system (OS) and fileset level verification is shipped with the
AIX® operating system by default. To access the modules that
are shipped with the AIX operating system, use one of the
following paths:
- /usr/lib/security/tnc/libfileset_imc.a: Collects the OS level and information about the fileset that is installed from the client system and sends it to the IMV (TNC server) for verification.
- /usr/lib/security/tnc/libfileset_imv.a: Requests the OS
level and fileset information from the client and compares it with the baseline information. It also
updates the status of the client into the database of the TNC server. To view the status, enter the
following
command:
psconf list -s<COMPLIANT|IGNORE|FAILED|ALL>-i<ip|ALL> [-c] [-q]
