## Encryption

The Settings > Security > Encryption page shows the information on the Security Encryption configuration, in case it is configured. Once there is a valid configuration present, it is also possible to start a connectivity check for validating the connection between the library and the KMIP server.

Use Manage KMIP Encryption action from the Actions drop down menu to start the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) Wizard.

Use Manage SKLM for z/OS Encryption action from the Actions drop down menu to start the SKLM for z/OS configuration.

Use Run Key Path Diagnostic action from the Actions drop down menu to get to the Key Path Diagnostic screen. This action will be disabled in case the library managed encrytion is not activated.

This sections gives information on the overall Library Managed Encryption status.

Logical Library Encryption Status

This section will only be shown in case at least one logical library is configured to Library Managed Encryption. It contains up to three different tables.

- Logical Libraries
  List of all configured logical libraries including its number, name, serial number and configured encryption mode.
- KMIP Servers
  List of all configured KMIP servers including IP address, port, key server type and the logical library number for which the server is configured.
  In case a KMIP server configuration is present, it is possible th execute a connectivity check. Click Connectivity Check after selecting a specific logical library to start the check.
- SKLM for z/OS
  This section includes two tables. The first table (SKLM for z/OS Configuration) shows all configured logical libraries including the SSL and Encryption Policy configuration. The second table (SKLM for z/OS Key Servers) shows all configured servers with IP address and port information.
