Adding Dynamic Accounts in SAPM
To configure SAPM for any given system, a SAPM account needs to be added. Authorized users can define the target devices’ privileged users as SAPM accounts. By configuring a SAPM account, Kron PAM establishes a connection to the target system and changes the old password by generating a random password created by the SAPM. The new password is encrypted and stored in the SAPM database. To add a Dynamic account:
- Navigate to SAPM Management > SAPM Management.
- Open the SAPM Accounts tab.
- Enter the Type (Dynamic), Account Name, Description, Group Name, Host (IP/Name), Private, Change the period, Owner, Additional Info, Username, Password, and Configuration. (Configuration is the type of target system device. Kron PAM has pre-defined configurations for SAPM, but any device configuration can be added from the Configuration tab. This is detailed in the upcoming sections).
- Click Save and Confirm the pop-up dialog box.
If Change Period (day) is not set in the SAPM Accounts Tab, the change.period.in.day parameter value in the Configuration tab is used to change the password. If the SAPM Account Change Period and change.period.in.day parameter values are not set during configuration, an error will occur when changing the password.
