Onboarding Admin account for SPS in Safeguard

What is the “Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS)” platform within SPP, and what is its intended use? I am trying to onboard the AdminSPS account in this platform and have configured the SPS IP as the network address. However, the test connection is failing regardless of whether I use port 443 or 22. This is in One Identity Safeguard On Demand version 8.0.0. The objective is to onboard the Admin account from SPS and enable PAM-based password rotation.

  • Hello again,

    The Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) platform within SPP is intended for managing accounts that exist locally on the SPS appliance, such as the AdminSPS account.

    To use this functionality, you need to enable local SSH server under Basic Settings → Local Services on the SPS server. This is required, at least for on-premises installations.

    In my case, the connection test was failing because a custom port had been configured for the local SSH server (port 2222), which I had overlooked. By default, port 22 is typically reserved for the SSH Connection Policy. I am doing this on On-Prem installation.

  • Hi Darko,

    Many thanks for your reply.

    We are using One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions on Demand SE, where the appliances are hosted by One Identity, so we do not have much control over the underlying infrastructure.

    I am logged into SPS using the Admin account, and under Basic Settings I cannot  see the “Local Services” option.
