The engine now tries to make initial Management Server contact.
• If you see a “connection refused” error message, ensure that the
one-time password is correct and the Management Server IP address
is reachable from the node. Save a new initial configuration if you are
unsure about the password.
• If the engine is unable to contact the Management Server, make sure
that there are no networking problems, that all information defined in
the Firewall element corresponds to what you entered in the
Configuration Wizard and, if NAT is in use, that you have configured
contact addresses for NAT as explained in the
Firewall/VPN
Installation Guide
.
Note –
Once initial contact has been made, the engine receives a
certificate from the Management Center for identification. If the
certificate is deleted or expires, you must repeat the initial contact
using a new one-time password.
