Setting up secure management with TLS

So you have a bright shiny new NetApp and you've just installed OnCommand System Manager. However, when you connect to your filer, you get a warning that says:

 'filer-name.mydomain.com' is not configured for secure management with TLS.  Sensitive information
you supply including passwords will be visible to other computers on the network.

Do you want to continue with non-secure connection ?

The answer to that question is of course, HELL NO!

To fix this, log on to the filer head and run these commands:

 options tls.enable on
 options httpd.admin.ssl.enable on
 secureadmin setup -f ssl

With the last command, simply follow the prompts and it should now be all good :-)
