Add a configuration for an external CMS server

This section provides you the procedure for adding a configuration for an external CMS server.

To add a configuration for an external CMS server

  1. On the left, click Credential management.
  2. On the External CMS servers tab, click Add and provide the following properties:
    • Configuration name

    • Description (for example: This configuration is used to access the external CMS.)

    • External CMS provider

    • Host name

    • Port number: Default port number 443 would be considered (if not provided by the user).
