Learning about Tempered Networks and our products is a great way to get started with our IDN solution.
Learn how to install the different product components, set up overlays, and configure device trust in six simple steps.
The steps to create an overlay network are simple, but there are a few tasks you need to validate are complete before you begin.
Tempered Networks components require that certain conditions exist on your network before proceeding with installation and configuration.
Everything you need to know about licensing your Conductor and HIPservices.
To set up a Conductor for the first time, you need to configure a few basic settings. After completing the following, you can connect the Conductor to your underlay.
The Settings page contains many configurable options to help you customize Conductor behavior to support your environment.
Tempered Networks™ client solutions let you securely connect managed endpoints, such as laptops, PCs, tablets, and smartphones.
As you prepare to connect devices to HIPswitches, you may want your HIPswitch product guide available to identify the ports reserved for connecting devices you want to protect.
The last step in deploying the Tempered Networks solution is to create an overlay. An overlay is a fabric of secured communications channels that allow trusted devices to communicate securely with each other. They are controlled by HIPservices and administered by the Conductor.
Once an overlay network is created, you can add devices or groups of devices.
Overlay networks can only be modified by users who are managers of that network. After creating an overlay network, you may want to add additional managers to your overlay network or edit their roles.
You can use Active Directory and LDAP authentication with the Conductor to streamline user account management. When LDAP is configured in the Conductor, the login screen provides the user with an LDAP account option.
Only users with system administrator privileges can configure device trust for an overlay network. From Overlays, select the overlay network you want to set up communications policies for, which brings up the list of devices and device groups that belong to the overlay in the Devices tab.
