iLO 5 Gen10 security states

When you add a Gen10 node to SUM, communication between the iLO and host operating system occurs over the CHIF interface. Depending on the iLO security state, the communication operates in the following modes:

Normal mode (Production mode)

In normal mode, communication is not encrypted.

Secure mode

In secure mode (High security, FIPS, and CNSA SuiteB), communication between the iLO and host operating system is encrypted, authorized, and authenticated.

Provide iLO administrator credentials for SUM to perform scouting, inventory, or deployment updates to an iLO in secure mode.
