Securing the DockLINK with Data Encryption
If you have installed the encryption option, the SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION – DATA ENCRYPTION page allows you to
secure wireless data. If using Data Encryption, the RSA
logo appears on the left side of the banner at the top of
the screen. The right side of the banner displays a red
Lock icon. If encryption is installed but temporarily
disabled, the lock appears to be open. When encryption
is installed and enabled, the lock appears to be closed.
This page offers two selections:
Data Encryption Enable check box
Encryption Key field
Data Encryption Enabled Check Box
This selection enables or disables Data Encryption on
DockLINK data packets.
Checked Enables Data Encryption. Only stations that
share the same encryption key can exchange data with the DockLINK.
Clear Disables Data Encryption. All users with the same Subnet ID can share network resources.
Encryption Key (and Retype Encryption Key)
These items set the encryption key for the DockLINK.
