3.4.2 Read the Status of the Security World

The status information related to the existing Security World and attached module(s) can be viewed using the nfkminfo utility. See the nShield Edge and Solo User Guide for Windows for more information.

This status information contains several important fields. The hknso and hkm fields allow the user to uniquely identify the specific Security World.

Once a module is moved to the operational state, the module status read by nfkminfo utility must indicate "usable" module state.

Figure 3-7 shows sample output of the nfkminfo utility.
