Configure Signature Verification for Software Package Uploads
For supported software information, click here.
You can use digital signature verification to verify Director and Versa Operating SystemTM (VOSTM) software packages that are uploaded using a Director node. When you initiate a package upload, the Director node also uploads the signature file to verify the package. If the verification succeeds, the Director node saves the package. If the signature verification fails, the image is deleted and the upload fails.

- Select System > Settings in the left menu bar. In Releases 22.1.1 and earlier, select System > Secure Upload Setting in the left menu bar.
