Allowing external communication with Bravura Security Fabric

Communication with the Bravura Pass server is controlled by an access control list. When you install the Password Manager service, it automatically sets the access control for the local server, "127.0.0.1/32,::1/128", with all allowable access so that it can perform its operations with no modification.

To allow external servers access to the Password Manager service on the primary Bravura Security Fabric server, you must set up the Comma-delimited list of IP addresses with CIDR bitmask that are allowed to send socket requests on the Password Manager service information page.

The external server ACLs are based on a server’s IP address defined using Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation , which allows for address ranges.
