Chapter 8. Remediation subsystem
implementation
This chapter describes the IBM Tivoli Configuration Manager part of the Network
Admission Control (NAC) solution, where the main concern is the remediation of
the noncompliant clients. The remediation process can be either manual, done
by the user who follows provided instructions, or automated, where the user only
clicks the Fix Now button in the provided user interface.
We also discuss the maintenance issues with the solution components and
provide a detailed walkthrough for remediation workflow creation to match the
security policy change process.
Creating the automated remediation component requires the following
components and tasks:
Installation and configuration of the Tivoli Configuration Manager Web
Gateway on top of the base Tivoli Configuration Manager server.
Creating the remediation instructions for the users based on input data from
the security-compliance team about the configuration of the compliance
policy.
Remediation server configuration. This includes several steps:
– Installation of the Software Package Web Server
– Configuration of the Software Package Web Server
