Keys (16-field encryption key): These fields are designed to contain
the hexadecimal encryption key used in encrypting network traffic.
Only a valid hexadecimal number will be accepted in these fields.
Default value of each field is set to 00.
After saving the changes, the Paragon II will automatically reboot with
the new network settings.
When building a tiered system of Paragon switches, each Paragon II
switch should be connected to the network with a unique IP address. In
such a system, changing the network settings through a user station will
change the network settings of the Paragon II switch that user station is
physically connected to. For example, a P2-UST connected to the base
tier of a system will change the IP address only of that Base Unit, while a
P2-UST connected to a third tier Paragon II will change the IP address of
that particular third-tier unit.
It is essential to put all matrix switches in a Paragon II system on the
network, as firmware upgrades are pushed across the system through
TCP/IP.
