Summary
This on-demand lab course guides the participant through the steps to accomplish a standard data migration from RSA Authentication Manager version 6.1 or 7.1 to version 8.x.
Overview
This on-demand lab course describes the features and functions that are new in RSA Authentication Manager v8.x compared to v6.1 or v7.1. It details several deployment and migration scenarios and the steps required to migrate data to a v8.x installation. Hands-on exercises in a controlled virtual environment provide practice in performing an actual data migration. Note that this course discusses and offers practice for “out-of-box” deployments and does not address migration of customized APIs or other customization. It also does not discuss the entire range of administrative functions of the v8 product in detail – just the specific functions that have undergone significant change between product versions.
Audience
Technologists who are responsible for an RSA SecurID system and intend on migrating from RSA Authentication Manager v6.1 or v7.1 to v8.x
Prerequisite Knowledge/Skills
Students should have familiarity with RSA SecurID technology and RSA Authentication Manager v6.1 or v7.1.
Delivery Type
On-Demand Lab (self paced on-demand learning with lab guide and virtual environment)
Duration
3.5 hours
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this course, participants should be able to:
- Know what is involved with a data migration from a v6.1 or v7.1 system to v8
- Know what differences exist in product versions
- Practice a data migration in a controlled lab environment
