Re: [Veritas-bu] Ssh style encryption of data transfer from client to server
Enable the Netbackup Encryption option? -Original Message- From: veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu [mailto:veritas-bu-boun...@mailman.eng.auburn.edu] On Behalf Of Rosie Cleary Sent: Friday, January 06, 2012 10:31 AM To: VERITAS-BU@MAILMAN.ENG.AUBURN.EDU Subject: [Veritas-bu] Ssh style encryption of data transfer from client to server I ran a test recently and found that Netbackup transfers data from the backup client to the server in clear text. I would prefer to secure the network traffic without encrypting the resulting backup, do you know of any options to do this?

The keywords are without encrypting the resulting backup. Encrypting at the client means that you lose dedupe and tape compression capabilities. Using the Media Server Encryption Option (MSEO) doesn't help in the client-server traffic (and you lose dedupe/compression again). I replied (accidentally offlist) to the enquiry by suggesting IPsec (or any type of VPN-like solution really). Over the wire is ciphertext, but it's all cleartext to the NetBackup server after the kernel is done decrypting it. ___ Veritas-bu maillist - Veritas-bu@mailman.eng.auburn.edu http://mailman.eng.auburn.edu/mailman/listinfo/veritas-bu
