An external Luna Backup HSM can be USB-connected to a Luna Network HSM 7 appliance for local backup/restore operations.

Luna Network HSM 7 does not pass Luna PED operations and data through to an externally-connected Luna Backup HSM from a Luna PED connected locally to the Luna Network HSM 7.

If the Backup HSM is multifactor quorum-authenticated, then the options for Luna PED connection are:

>local SCP-PED connection directly to the Backup HSM (Luna Backup HSM G5 only)

>Remote PED connection, passed through the Luna Network HSM 7 (Luna Backup HSM G5, Luna Backup HSM 7 v1 or v2, requires minimum Luna Appliance Software 7.7.0, use procedure for Backup/Restore Using Appliance-Connected Luna Backup HSM 7 v1)
