Conductor Configuration

Once a HIPclient is configured with the IP address or hostname of the Conductor IP (via the Windows tray) and provided that the Windows machine has a route to the Conductor, the HIPclient will appear as online in the Conductor. You can place a HIPclient into overlay networks and enable communications policies (trust) in one click. Once trust is enabled in the Conductor, the routes to protected devices within overlay networks are pushed from the Conductor to the HIPclient and therefore the Windows machine. Provided the HIPclient has a route to the remote HIPclient or HIPswitch-protected device, a secure HIPtunnel is formed once communications begin. You can also disable communications policies (trust) in one click, and all changes to trust are documented in the overlay network visualization tab.

Note:
  • You can also automateHIPclient communications policies using the API.
  • The HIPclient does not support Conductor multi-tenancy so a HIPclient can only be managed by one Conductor.
