Note

Remote Attestation is supported on Extreme 8720 and Extreme 8520 devices.

To configure Remote Attestation do the following:

Procedure

  1. Navigate into the configuration mode
    SLX # configure terminal
    SLX (config)# 
                        
  2. Enable Measured Boot.
    SLX (config)# measure-boot enable
    SLX (config)#
                        
  3. Enter the Remote Attestation configuration mode.
    SLX (config)# remote-attestation 
    SLX (config-remote-attestation)#                        
                        
  4. Configure the remote Remote Attestation server first. Here you will configure the settings for the VRF that will be used to access the Remote Attestation server.
    SLX (config-remote-attestation)# registrar-server 10.1.1.1 use-vrf default-vrf 
    SLX (config-remote-attestation-10.1.1.1/default-vrf)#
                        
  5. Configure the port on which the Remote Attestation server is listening. This configuration is done on the VRF configured in the previous step.
    SLX (config-remote-attestation-10.1.1.1/default-vrf)# registrar-port 
    SLX (config-remote-attestation-10.1.1.1/default-vrf)# 
                        
    The default port is 8890. If your Remote Attestation server is listening on another port, enter that port number here. Valid values are in the range 0-65535.
  6. Exit out of registrar-server configuration mode.
    SLX (config-remote-attestation-10.1.1.1/default-vrf)# exit
    SLX (config-remote-attestation) #
                        
  7. Configure the Remote Attestation Agent UUID.
    SLX(config-remote-attestation)# agent-uuid ?
    SLX (config-remote-attestation) #
    Possible completions:
    	<1-100>   UUID of the device.[auto]
                       
    The show remote-attestation status displays UUID status.
  8. Configure the Remote Attestation listening port.
    SLX(config-remote-attestation)# agent-port ?
    SLX (config-remote-attestation) #
    Possible completions:
      <Choose the port number in the range 0 - 65535>
       SLX(config-remote-attestation)# agent-port
                        
    The Remote Attestation agent is configured to listen on port 9002 by default. If your Remote Attestation agent is listening on a different port, configure that port here. Port can be in the range 0-65535.
  9. Enable the Remote Attestation agent.
     SLX (config-remote-attestation) # agent-enable
    SLX (config-remote-attestation) #
                        
  10. Exit out of the Remote Attestation configuration mode.
    SLX (config-remote-attestation) # exit
    SLX (config)#
                        
  11. Exit out of the Global Configuration mode.
    SLX (config)# exit
    SLX #
